Just rambling to myself , when scales pop up , like a patois .

The budget Yamaha dreadnaught at “Lectric Ave” . Very glad to be part of that family . It is the first “custom project” , from “the boathouse” for that shop . It’s practically feedback proof , and that’s a solid solution for a common problem . It’s an old tune called : Roof’s on Fire . Thought I’d do some straight chords , just to funk it up a bit . 12 gauge xs coated D’addario phosphor bronze ...

Still swapping different bits around , guess ye could call it writing . And when ye want an album , ye gotta line up stuff .

Mc Rory , Dave brummet , Garth and meself , at a jam night at the Kokanee . Sometimes simple is better , it keeps the groove going .

We hadn't really heard the "crunch setting" on this amplifier yet . It fairly emulates the 12AU7 valve of it's predecessor . ( the vintage amp behind me ) This handy little box shakes the floor . That's progress to me .

An attempt to find a deeper abstraction , to a really old tune . Because I don't live my life on hold . "Lemon Pie" is one of those licks , that seems at first so simple , yet it's bottomless .

Never thought I'd be useful on a djembe . Or that it would happen at work , with such a stellar performer . Grateful to be on mainstreet .

gealic for rhyme or reason ( hand built tuneable bodhran ) The Boathouse is not just a repair shop or a studio . It's an oasis .

Yup , it's the Ampeg rocketbass 15inch again , with some snazzy stomps . Really versatile amp that . That should do it for live stuff . Don't know what to call it yet . Just happy that I can go with it where I like .

Mollystone is a ditty about an angry little girl with a stone in her pocket and as she saunters reluctantly away from another bully she squeezes it hard and imagines it to be a white hot bullet in the back of a neck and as she struggled with that thought one day it snapped with ease and surprised her of her strength from that day on she’d skip right past them

In the studio we use a lot of pricey stuff . But for live playing or starting off , it's best to stick to basics . The simpler and more foolproof the better . budget yamaha acoustic guitar single coil passive magnetic soundhole pickup ampeg 15inch bass combo ( less is more ... more or less ) recorded with an "m-audio" pocket recorder phone video processed with free daw on laptop

"Longvis" is a boathouse project , about fixing your sound , your instrument , and yourself .
