I noticed that you mentioned wanted a Jackson or ESP to add to your collection. I gotta say, I've had nothing but good experiences with the LTD line. I have an EC400-AT and an EC1000-VHB and use them both in various tunings. The EC1000 is exception at holding tunings that are lower than standard. I recommend raising your string gauge slightly if you're using .10-.46 or lower. For the money, you really can't go wrong with an ESP/LTD. Greg Hi,

I like how you have the lone fender in there. I'm a Gibson guy too, but down the road I would like to add a Strat to the collection as well. I haven't made my millions in the IT industry yet though.... Wow, thats a pretty sweet collection you have got. I like how you have the lone fender in there.

I love the PODxt Live for recording. It just sounds so much different live than it does with the direct recording. I guess I will just have to spend more time sith it. ;-( Thanks for the link.
