Phil has finished his refurbishment of my Les Paul and it had its first serious outing today with a band practice. Katanga! - the Di Marzio pick ups are so different. The key is to turn the pick ups up high and the volume down on the amplifier. Fantastic sound. And the new Grover machine heads make tuning so much easier as there's no slack or slippage in the gearing. What's more, the band practice went much better than I feared, given my lack of practice. We got some new songs sorted out quite well, and revived some old ones:
Valerie - The Zutons
My Hero -Foo Fighters
Steady As She Goes - Raconteurs
Stumble and Fall - Razorlight
Can't Stop - Red Hot Chilli Peppers
Warning Sign - Coldplay
Brief attempt at Cochise by Audioslave but very sloppy. Next time!
