GMC Forum _ PRACTICE ROOM _ Back In Business

Posted by: Nava Nov 1 2012, 08:30 PM

Hi!!

So I'm back after a break from GMC..

Swede and have reach the honorable age of 47! Guess I still have a 40 year of active guitarplaying biggrin.gif

I have not been that lazy, still practising but its hard without a goal. GMC is such an inspiration and I have you to thank for so much of my development.

Bought new gear: ESP Horizon with an Marshall YJM 100 (only 1500 are made) so I'm lucky to own one;)

My goal for now is still to work on AP and arpeggios..
Looking forward to practise hard again and really thrilled to be here again!

See you all in forum and hopefully in some recs smile.gif

Welcome back, man! I think we started here just about the same time.

Please tell us more about the Horizon! I've been secretly drooling over one of those, but never got the chance to play any.

Thomas, welcome back.. it's great to see you hear again smile.gif

You've got a YJM Marshall ??? As in... Mr Malmsteen signature guitar head ? biggrin.gif

I've gotta hear that in action.. how do you like it ?

Thanks folks biggrin.gif

Well, the Horizon is a fantastic guitar with FR tremolo, and a push/pull button to split the humbucker to get a sound near a classic fender strat.

The feeling of playing the guitar increases every day:)
Its really like a magnet that draw you to pick it up!

I have Seymor Duncan and the guitar neck in ebenholz..

Along with the YJM top (yes Ben, its Mr.Malmsteen signature) wink.gif I would say its a fantastic sound.
I cannot demonstrate cause Malmsteen would probably cry when he hears it!

I search for hes early sound and struggling a lot to find a sound that fits me.. but I'm sure I'll find it someday!

Anyway, thanks for welcoming biggrin.gif

I found this demo and it sounds exactly like Malmsteen. Killer tone.
