    I was just remembering how I used to sing along and dance to your self titled album from 1988 with my brothers and my mom in the car, (The album would have been almost 15 years old at this point) so I listened to it just now. So nostalgic. I loved specifically why’d you lie when I was a little tyke, and when I was listening back to the track I got thinking “Man, I love strats, I had forgot how much of an influence this guy had on my appreciation for them” so I just googled your website out of curiosity, and low and behold, I happen upon a video in which you open with that riff - to talk about strats... Pardon the monologue. Just having a good moment.

    Seen all these videos about your guitars today ( my birthday), and it made me think...I believe I watched one of your videos a while back, in your studio, and I think I made the suggestion to show all your guitars and studio...correct me if I’m wrong, but glad to finally see the tools of the trade Colin. 👍🏻

    Finally get to see you with that guitar from when you were starting out...are you able to get a hold of Rod Evans at all ? I used to be able to email him, but now I lost contact with him...I love how you’re showing all your instruments and talk about each of them, as well as your studio...would love to hear more about how you started out, what is it like being in the music business and how was it like being around Stevie Ray Vaughan, Jeff Healey ? Would love to meet you one day...I was always a fan of what you’ve done with your music. 👍🏻

    Remember that old VH tune Finished What Ya Started?
    EVH on what sounds like a plain Strat with no effects.
    Perfect demo of classic Strat tone.
    Sorry Colin for digressing. But I buy all your CDs.
    Hope to see you soon.
    PS. Are those real dogs or........

    Ahhhhhh, awesome tone... i'm not very familiar with reverbs and delays, there are so many types and parameters are confusing to me... a short presentation of your settings would be so useful (type of reverb, mix level, feeedback level... same for delay... basically, just a deeper rundown into that clean sound greatness! Colin, much love from Quebec City! :)

    Great strat collection! Did SS frets affect the tone? I am considering to dress my strat with SS frets. Thanks and stay healthy! Cheers!
