  Quite some things have changed, really. I'm ampless for the moment, but I'm looking for a replacement though. I haven't really made my mind up what to buy, but I've narrowed down my list to a few amps. We'll see...

  15/11/2005 : Bjorn and I attended a Michael Angelo Batio Clinic in Guitar Center (Koln, Germany). Here you can see some pictures. Michael really is an amazing guitar player and a great guy too!

  I bought an Engl SE EL34 amp from Joris, back to the full tube front :) I now use a RoadReady shockproof rack which is an amazing fine rack btw. I have 2 rack shelves for my pedals, my GCX and my G-Sharp installed. Now I need to recable the whole package

  Some things have changed lately. Due to the fact that I was going to be father for the second time I decided to cut back my music gear. I sold both my amps (Randall RM100 and Engl SE EL34) because I didn't see myself playing a lot in the near future and a half stack is just too much when you have 2 little kids walking around (well, one walking one sleeping most of the time)...

  March 2009

  14/03/09: I became father for the second time, we welcome Alexander to our family!
