That’s not your long-haired ugly ass shredding that Charvel is it?
Have you ever had to go back and learn something of your own?

Little things but had a bug up my ass (better than in my brain, right RFK? 
) and got the urge to Lear/re-learn Mr. Speed on guitar. The shifts and picking are not coming naturally with my playing style which makes it a good tune to practice for something new. Frustrating because it’s not overly-complicated but the fretting with timing is weird for me.

Yes. Because I tend towards a bridge that takes you somewhere else, it is at times that chord that gets you back home that I must "learn" again.

Yeah - that be me. I recall that I made that clip after a period of not even touching a guitar for 2-3 months. You know the feeling... feels so good to play again.

Still have my ‘87/‘88 (forget the year) custom soloist I use for Felony (band not charge lol) reunion shows and Charvel Model 3 (‘87) as my backup. Damn good guitars. Recently changed out pups on Model 3 to EMG active (retro ‘78s) on the Charvel. Jackson is still factory stock, J1200!Or something…actives. Charvel was a Metallic pedal in ‘87 and has patina’s to a beautiful cream now, metal flakes still visible in the right lighting. Here’s the Jackson but Charvel pics are on another device I guess

In yours is loaded with a Floyd. Much as I worshipped EVH and wanted to follow his equip specs, Kahler was and is my only deviation from that. I’ve always loved Kahler systems and stocked them on all of my shredders

Tasty chops in case I didn’t mention it previously. Soulful with lots of bending…good man

Thanks!
I've got a (roughly) 2014-15 San Dimas (the one in the video) and a newer SoCal. They both have Floyd's and stock emg p/u's. I have them set up to taste and put a FR titanium nut on the San Dimas which is a great guitar for the $$ I paid for it.
I dig both of those guitars and the precision feel that they provide. I play them a lot. But I'm primarily a strat and LP guy. Guitars that are a little less forgiving.

The second 'reunion show' clip.
I'm fat and didn't have my hair. It's back now. The fat is still there. LOL

Same here. My shredders are broken out only for Felony shows but are stellar tools in the context. Les Pauls are my goto and I have one Strat that is jealous of them.

Most times I come to record a song from the vaults !

But on reflection, that's a good thing because it's then live and up to the minute.
