There's been all this hub-bub in the news recently regarding slain Mexican musicians. Perhaps El Capitano High-Pants set too high of a standard! But if the Musician killers are tone purists, I'd have to say, El Capitano--lay low!

I think that anybody who sees this will probably relax a bit about posting some of their own sound/vid clips. LMAO. :P

Funny, too, how he uses his middle finger to point to certain frets throughout his explanations.

Make sure it's solid state though. That's where the real tone is. Tubes are old news. :shock:

I know, right? That link is priceless, Mark... I'm going to get everybody around the computer next Rock and Roll night in Canada (this Friday) and I'm sure we'll all be crying tears of laughter. Anybody who doesn't make it this Friday will get the link by email. El Capitano Highpants. . . That is funny stuff. You really have to wonder what El Capitano sounded like during his formative years, too. Thats some BAD practice sessions, right there.

I may be wrong, but I think he's speaking Italian or one of the dialects.
