Hi Friend - Hope you've had a great week -- I actually just got back Nashville so I'm still trying to caught up myself, but I've got a couple of very cool things for you to check out this week. The Brent Mason Stuff will be updated soon, along with the diy kits. I've taken about 100 pictures of Brent and his gear with a much better camera, so make sure you check it out. Of course, if you've already purchased the Brent Mason book or the diy book, you will get the newest version for free. Here's a few of the pics I took this week -- warning, though--big pictures/downloads! If you are on dialup, you may want to click the link, then go eat dinner, or go to the fridge and get another beer or something. Some Brent Mason pics from this week: http://www.howtoplayguitar.net/bsm/ Also, I've acquired a Keeley bd-2 Freak Fuzz, and I wanted to offer it to my newsletter members first, before it goes on ebay. It's brand new. If you're interested, send me your offer. We now have a new tech on staff, so if you need your pedal modified, please email tim@indyguitarist.com for questions about him modifying your pedal for you, using indyguitarist mods. Tim owns and runs www.tcjeffects.com, and is a licensed EE, and knows more about pedals than anyone I've ran into for quite a while!! Super good guy, too. Welcome aboard, Tim! Have a great weekend Friend!! Take care, Brian ps -- updated tone guide for members- Here is the download link: http://www.guitartone.net/tone/typ.html
