Keeping casual and cool in the charming Robin Hood's Bay. The wonderful thing about living in the British coastal countryside is that you can be hiking and exploring in ancient woodland one minute, and relaxing by the sea in the next.

Do you play video games? If so, what are you playing at the moment?
As many of you may know, I'm a great fan of epic adventure games and JRPG's - so between working nights, training in the gym and composing my new album, I'm currently enjoying the beautiful Octopath Traveler for Nintendo Switch.

I was considering selling my Diezel VH4 in order to fund a Kemper as a more convenient recording solution. However, I have now decided *not* to part with my beloved beast; it's part of my soul as a guitar player and I know that I'd deeply regret selling it.

Long time no see, Wolfpack.
Allow me to explain the reason for my absence. I had become exceedingly bored and disillusioned with Instagram; a tedium which stemmed predominantly from the fact that I was limiting my posts and captions to strictly music and guitar-related topics. This became problematic for a few reasons: musical inspiration is fleeting, I don't like playing cover versions, and I don't play guitar every day anyway. Thus, in order to keep things interesting, I plan to return to sharing a broader range of posts encompassing my lifestyle *as well as* my music, rather than continue the monotony of limiting my feed.
How do you feel about that?

Zelda's debut since her ascension featuring the Lundgren Black Heaven pickup set which, as you can hear, sound exquisite in their refined ferocity. 👌🏻🐺
Here is a simple, stomping riff from a work-in-progress which is tentatively titled “Moth Into King Nothing’s Dark Chest of Wonders”. No bonus points for guessing the references. I have also composed some excruciatingly epic symphonic elements for it too, but decided to only upload the “metal” version here as I should like to keep some surprises for when it's released. 😉

Thomastik-Infeld Power Brights.
Handwound in Vienna.
Percussive attack and excellent projection with a beautiful, balanced response and rich harmonic overtones.
In addition, taking into consideration my music's symphonic elements and the company's rich heritage in creating strings for classical instruments, I can think of no more suitable brand for me to support.
Truly god-tier guitar strings, pictured here matching wonderfully with my equally god-tier Timber Tones bone plectra.

"Two Notes to bind them..."
NGD in the Wolf's Lair - the Two Notes Torpedo Captor! This little French tank not only perfectly complements the aesthetic of my Diezel VH4, it allows me to bypass the speaker cabinet and record the sound of the amplifier silently, directly in to my laptop - effortlessly combining the best of both analogue and digital (hence the introductory LOTR paraphrase). This means that I will no longer be restricted to recording my loud amplifier only during sociable hours (which is a very difficult thing to achieve between neighbours, work, and training commitments), which in turn means that regular guitar videos are incoming!
Furthermore, using the Two Notes Wall of Sound software enables one to mix and match speakers, cabinets and microphones in order to sculpt the perfect tone which, for a particularly discerning man as myself, is a most exciting prospect and shall serve me well on everything that I record henceforth; from my Instagram videos to my forthcoming original music!
Merci for the magic, @TwoNotesAudio! 🇫🇷
