Nahh, I'm not that extreme...

Nice find really! I've never looked at his fingers that much to notice it.

Taiji really stands out!
I have seen his talent with bass, he's really pro, god of bass tapping.
I also like his style of dressing, esp. during 1990-1992.
He also knows how to act on stage.

Help / Fernandes MG-120X Question

« on: April 23, 2008, 07:03:11 AM »

So to help you Dave, it's SMI(Scandinavian Music Instruments) OY, which imports Fernandes' guitars and basses. However they happen to have only a few basic guitar models as well as bass models too. Only MG style guitar they have is MG-85C (the transparent acrylic model). They might be able to get other MG models as well, but it will be expensive, since they don't support any other MG-model than MG-85C.

here's the website, so you can scroll through their offerings.

My room's full of music equipment:


First of all, here's my guitars: Yamaha SuperBass 1200S from 1980, Landola Acoustic, ESP LTD AX-50


My chromatic fullsize Kantele (38 strings).


My KAWAI (kawaii..) ES-4 stagepiano. (Es-dur no piano sen on the note stand).

Bass rig (H|H V-S Bassamp 100W from 1978, Warwick 411 PRO), Roland MicroCube.


I'm getting a new bass (Cort Curbow 5) this summer and also new bassamp (Gallien Krueger Backline 600).

I study piano and Kantele in an academy, and play bass and sing in my band. I play guitar in another band project.

Joonas desu. Yoroshiku onegaishimasu!

So, it's a pretty common Finnish man's first name, which BTW comes from a hebrew word יוֹנָה (jonah), meaning a dove.

I live in Espoo, Finland. It's the second largest city of Finland (approx. 230 000 people). We have quite a lot nature here, woods, beaches...
I live the city-part of Espoo, but it takes only 15 minutes by car to get to the countryside. And I guess Espoo has several hundred X fans (at least 100).
I enjoy living here.

« on: April 20, 2008, 06:08:32 PM »

I guess Fortus was OK, so I won't complain if he plays in the next lives.
I really want Sugizo to come to Paris, he was so awesome with X Japan during 28.-30. lives.
