Greetings from Greece!
james14000, ευχαριστώ!
Thank you for your kind words!
(I think with some more reverb on the lead guitar the result would be perfect!The sound of tele is very nice!!!!)
We are constantly experimenting with the sound, our first and second albums sounds very different so we aplanning the third album we are working on now to sound in a bit different way
Yes, this tele is a very good guitar, now with these Lollars '52 pickups it sounds even better. But to be honest I'm thinking about switching back to strat but ...who knows.

We saw the beautiful summer home (?) of Tchaikovsky while we were there. They even have a McDonalds, which serves potatoes with sour cream. Absolutely love the food in real Russian restaurants! We never got as far as St. Petersburg, but the countryside villages are lovely. We were there for five weeks, but spent most of our time in Moscow. This was in 2000.
I highly recommend you to visit St. Petersburg next time you will be in Russia, it's a really amazing and beatiful city.
I will be pleased to provide a city discovery tour for you

We'll definitely take you up on that! The best times we had were when we were in the company of local friends.

Dig Garagum; like the Duane Eddy-esque stuff too, nice touch.
Looking forward to the new album.

All tracks has been successfully recorded!
However, there is still much work to do: mixing, mastering.
