Hello, you mentioned that you are trying out ibanez, esp and fender guitars. Which models are you road testing? The new songs sound great. I can't really stop listerning to your album online. I do hope it comes out soon. Having hear your new material, I think that you may really like the album "Non Fiction" by Chris Haskett. Very different and very interesting as far as solo guitar albums go. Some great samples and electronic stuff with some heavy and weird hooks (none of that self indulgent guitar mastur**tion - not that I mind it too much, except when it goes on for 40 minutes). Much courage and strength, Edward
