Why didn't anyone warn me about Squier J Mascis??

McToot

With playing like that you could probably make a plank and rubber bands sound tasty. It's not the guitar - it's the fingers...

  

What amp were you playing through?

@McToot honestly thanks for that, but it definitely helps to have a guitar that inspires, and it appears that x factor isn't necessarily linked to cost!

seriously though he is correct, you have that Mike Herman thing going on that you make everything sound that fusion-wanky way I wish I could channel on a regular basis. Really enjoy your playing, have already stole a few of your arpeggio patterns and really hope you stop making guitars I would otherwise completely look-over sound great because you might start costing me serious money

@NelsonP looks beautiful!

Thanks John. I'd like to take credit for it, but it's nearly all someone else's work. Fine job they did too.

Unfortunately I can't buy your guitar skills.  Where did you learn to play like that?

@NelsonP haha cheers! in my bedroom...
