Well that was quite something!
Jeff and Corey’s Blues Adventure workshop in Italy went by in a heartbeat of playing, learning, chatting, eating and laughing. @jeffmcerlain and @coreycongilio were the perfect special guest tutors, supporting our guitar players to the next level of their development and inspiring them to try new ideas. So many lightbulb moments!!
The Thursday night gig was a triumph too, with a packed house giving the bands multiple standing ovations.
It’s one of the most wonderful things about Guitar Breaks: being in the room when guests make their next new discovery!! 🙏 Massive thanks to all our guests who trusted in @guitarbreaks

Here was the video I meant to post last night, but my dog ruined everything… super happy with this and it sounds amazing, sounds to follow. Runs on two cable and four cable. Music my Marin Marais performed by Jordi Savall. #gearybusey #pedalboard #guitar #gear
Well this is fun. Did some horse trading with my friends at @pedalstometalofficial for this Metroplex MKII. What a fun amp, Super Lead tones without taking my building down. The awesome @kingtoneguitar fuzz and the latest version of the @drybell1996 Vibe Machine. I have had a vibe machine consistently on my pedal board since I first got mine over 10 years ago. I can’t say many pedals have been that consistent for me. #drybellvibemachine #kingtonepedals #metroamp #metroplex
Here is an old Celtic tune that I first heard on the amazing collections called The Celt Vo1 & 2 by Jordi Savall. I highly recommend it. You can also hear this theme in the Harry Potter movies. What’s the most fun about this is how you have to play the guitar a bit differently, more like a bowed instrument. with this patch for the Fractal units that I use all the time. For us guitar nerds the tracking on this is really great, but you must play very cleanly and it can be a little glitchy here and there pitch wise (as you can hear) so you have to play to it. I found it inspiring as it made me play differently. In another life I’d come be a violinist, or cellist. I stole the patch from @fabian_ratsak_guitar (thank you very much) that he has made available on his YouTube page. Go check it out. #jeffmcerlain #fractalaudio #fractalfm9 #theroverreformed
Loving my Landau by @jsmith_fendercustomshop . It was just refretted by Michael Tuttle and plays like a dream. Definitely call him if you want to get one of the best fret jobs ever I switched out the pick ups to Ron Ellis LRP‘s. VIP pots and no treble bleeds. #guitar #jeffmcerlain #tuttleguitars #ronellispickups
