Hey, Hope you feel better soon man! Have a good one.

dude you look so friendly and disarming, its kind of suspicious lol

I liked the tone you got out of it on that video of yours!! really nice!!

I am wondering how much those go for? How does it feel?

I wanna know everything, about that Steinberger Spirit of yours!!

I knew you would dig it, that's why I sent it to you!! Thanks, bro!!

Old School, Greek 70s rock/prog band. They mix elements of greek traditional music with rock. I love the 2nd track.

Here you can hear on his impro the kind of greek/traditional sound.

We got Rotting Christ, Septic Flesh from the really well known ones.

These guys are greek and I've seen them live, quite amazing. Planet of Zeus.

Nothing else crosses my mind at the moment. If something comes up, I'll let you know.

Yeah, you can hear "Minor Swing" influences in the playing, I will find the track and send it over to you.

hahaha!! Notice, the Django sound in there.

Also, notice the alternate picking, it's fast, both of these date back in 1940-1950s.

Ofc, the more details the more expensive.

btw, here's a few bouzouki solos you might want to check out.

You'll hear odd measures, like 5/8, 5/4, etc. That's why those measures are so natural to us, Greeks, when we hear them, it's in our tradition. :D

That's true, good ones can cost quite a lot, particularly cause of the detailing with abalones, mother of pearls, etc.

Haha, it's a greek instrument. Some serious pickers play these things.

You're holding a bouzouki on your avatar?

How are those steinbergers?

Happy Birthday!

Yep...I believe they have the same drummer as well IIRC.
Listen to "Scarlet Paint and Gasoline" "Inbetween the Sheets" "Pencil Lead Syringe" actually all of the "We are gathered here today" album is excellent!

God is good!
