After not playing live for about a year I got a chance to play an acoustic set at a little place called Maggie McCalls in Omaha. It was a challenge arranging the songs for just an acoustic guitar and a bass, but fun. Here's a couple songs from it:
1.
Oceans
2.
Honeybear
3.
Futures
My bass player (Chris) on the left, me on the right.

It was fun coming up with an acoustic arrangement for it. Tough, but fun.

It's an Ibanez AE...model number? I don't remember. It plays really nice and has a mid range tone - not to bright not do bassy. I like it. Although I have to say I miss my old Washburn Dreadnaught. That thing had tone!
As for me looking like a tool, I called my parents and told you hated their genes
