I play my Klein Electric Guitar every day. Lorenzo German, who built it, is my ally in the world of guitars. I bought mine in 1997. In July of 2005 I had Lorenzo install new pickups, and generally overhaul it. It's like a new guitar. I have ordered another one - spruce, with a piezoelectric pickup in addition to a humbucker.

Some days, I also play my Gibson Pat Martino Custom, My Godin Flat Five X, or my Martin JC-40.

I send my guitar signal through a tc electronic G-Force processor and an Oberheim Echoplex Digital Pro.

I use either a Mesa/Boogie Nomad 45 or a Budda Twinmaster Plus amplifier.

I use a cheap Yamaha DX11 synthesiser to send MIDI data to my cheap Windows PC and a copy of Finale 2005.
