My gear "the holy grail" ( pedalboard, effects )

Ok, here we go. My pedalboard ( dirty and messy )

The picture tells everything...

My gear... Danelectro baritone

Danelectro "dead on 67" Baritone guitar. ( with tremolo, but its almost useless )

Bought this one last year from Thomann.

I really like the sound of this guitar. You can play really heavy, doomish riffs with this but also some twin peaks, twangy country stuff.

I tune this one down to B tuning ( not drop one ) you can drop this one down to A..

my gear..

Gibson Sg ( with tremolo )

I bought this guitar in 2007 from Texas, Austin. ( we played there with Callisto )

I think this one is from the early 90`s. This is my main guitar in Callisto.

Recorded almost all the guitar parts to Providence with this guitar.

my gear..

Yamaha "Sg" with bigspy tremolo.

I remember i bought this maybe in 2002 or 2003? from super-ostis, Turku. i think this guitar is from the 90`s or something..

I used this guitar a lot back in 2002 - 2005.. originally there wasnt tremolo, i put it later..

i dont use this anymore in live situation.. ( except last year when we played "New Canaan" live in our 10th anniversary show ) i recorded "New canaan" from providence album with this guitar... this guitar is weird, sometimes it sounds good, but sometimes i cant stand the sound..

ps : notice the Zao sticker..

...

Ok, here it goes.. i might be the lousiest bloggerguy out there!!!!!! full of grammar mistakes, cannot turn the pictures how they should be... plaa plaa.. i cannot even write properly. But i dont care.. have a nice easter!

Bouzuki and nylon..

Bouzuki...


ok, i almost forgot my crappy nylon.. this doesnt even deserve this much attention..

My gear part IV, V, VI, VII

Ok. I will post rest of my acoustic instruments to this same post.

First my mandolin. I bought this one maybe like 4 - 5 years ago from Turku. It was some second hand shop. This was Cheap one ( 35 euros ) but i have played it quite a lot. Actually you can hear this instrument in Callisto "Providence" album, on the track "Rule The Blood" This one is not that easy to play ( hard tension and heavy to pull out the chords ) I think it`s some cheap, Russian one..

Second instrument is my Banjo. I bought this during our America roadtrip ( 2009 ) with my wife ( from denver ) it cost like 100 euros, not bad. This one is really old one, maybe from the 70`s. I like this banjo. Its not only a decoration, i have played it a lot. Nice sound.

Third one is my Bouzuki which i bought from Greece. We did 2 shows in Athens back in 2009 with Callisto, so in that same trip i wanted to buy some souvenier. This has nice sound. I have played it a lot. Also recorded it to couple of songs.

Last one is my 12-string acoustic. This one is hard one. The neck is quite ruined and really hard to play, you cannot take any normal chords from this. I use it in open tuning and play it a lot with slide. But the main thing is that this has really full and rich sound, almost like mix of sitar,12-string and dobro! :) and it doesnt stay in tune that well.. my friend gave this to me couple of years ago.

all the photos have been taken with my phonecamera ( bad, i know ) my wife went to stockholm and took our camera with him..

i will post my effects, amps and rest of my electric guitars soon.

I will go to Roadburn2012 next week! Super excited!

I finished recording my parts of Uhrijuhla`s upcoming album ( my new band ) Now i will concentrate practicing with Callisto ( new songs and upcoming norway show )

Playlist?

a lot of old prog.

Cressida, Curved Air, Swedish prog and folk, some krautrock ( new and old favourites ) Soundtrack of our lives etc etc.. too much of good music out there!
