My 1st post-op electric guitar session. This is what my heart sounded like as it began reacclimating to the land of the living and expecting to stay that way. It was a little strange to play while occasionally openly weeping but it felt good.

I finally captured this 8 minute bit after jamming along these lines for maybe 30-40 minutes. There is way too much "dry" signal in the mix, since I just put my iphone on top of the monitor and hit record w/ the phone mic pointing towards the strings at roughly chest height.
I don't think there's much clipping, but the levels are all off too, which is unsurprising given I used the iPhone Voice Memos.app instead of real music recording equipment.
Technical Notes:
* Guitar: Washburn Wi-67 Pro (mostly neck pickup)
* FX: Line6 PodXT Live (Scofield patch 23C, w/ some use of Amp 32 / class A-30 + Stomp + Delay + some Wah)
* Amp: Roland Acoustic Chorus AC-60 Monitor w/ some reverb
* Recording: iPhone 4s / iOS 5 Voice Memos.app
