Two questions, both related to the pool: 1. Where’s the wah-wah pedal? 2. How are you not electrocuted? Nice job, btw.

[@justinjohnsonlive]

I actually recorded the guitar directly into a Centrance Mixerface battery-powered mobile recorder so that I could play in the pool without risk of electrocution or being connected to any power source. So the cable you see is running to the side of the pool, plugged directly into the Mixerface. I re-amped the guitar signal in my studio, by feeding that direct signal that was captured in the pool, through my pedalboard and into my Hughes and Kettner TriAmp. During the playback/recording process, I manually added the wah wah pedal in the places that I had imagined them to be.. So essentially what you’re hearing on the recording is the real sound of the cranked guitar amp with the wah pedal. I just had to do that in 2 steps because of the recording taking place in the water. 💦🤘

[@hellinahandbasket2]

That is pretty darned amazing. Thanks for going into detail. I never would’ve figured that all out by myself. 👍

[@rubynibs]

​@@justinjohnsonlive I was going to say you played battery-powered guitar almost as well as electric -- and laugh. Welp, more fool me! Battery-powered mixerfaces. No idea what those are, only what I enjoy listening to (you), so I'll just hush and go hang my head in shame, after I wipe away a tear from those last few bars of your Star Spangled Banner. ❤

From your cousins across the pond - Happy 4th of July to you all! A day you deserve to celebrate forever. We may fly our red, white and blue flags with different designs, we may speak the same language in slightly different ways, and a million and one other things we do similarly, but each in our own style - but we will always be family, and we'll always be there for one another. But having said all that...this glorious day is your day, not ours. It's all yours. And I hope you all have a frickin' awesome time! 🥰

Thank you very much, Cousin. From Indiana 😊

[@user-zm6yh3ux7l]

​@@Bond-gz6vg"We" didn't smoke anyone. Our ancestors did. Americans today are way too soft to accomplish such a feat. Fat, out of shape, don't know how to shoot and lazy. Years of liberty have made most Americans entitled.
