I picked my guitars based on the sound they made before I even plugged them in. I try to keep as much of that purity in the final sound as possible. I like the amp to do all the coloring of the tone.

Especially when I was on the road with Billy Bacon and the Forbidden Pigs. Lately though, I've had that nervous excitement that you get when you're about to go on stage for a big performance. That's because I am so excited about the way my band is sounding that I'm bubbling over with anticipation.
