Been a couple weeks. I have a ton going on now. Between work and the baby and the girls, I have school now. Yep, back at college for my BS in mechanical engineering. Very good school for it, too; so, I am excited. I was seriously bummed when I heard they didn't have a jazz band anymore. Oh well.
I do have a jam prospect coming up though. A dude who is a Berklee grad says he'd like to put something together for small cafe gigs and what not. I am nervous at the prospect for sure but I know this is the only way to get better: experience.
This past week did see some changes in my gear for sure. Mark (mgoetting) here on the Heritage Owners' Club sold me his Cube 80x and I gotta say it is the bee's knees for me. I keep saying that I will dial in some good tones for other genres but the moment I hear that wonderful JC tone, I never get past it! haha. One of these days, I am sure I will get to it. 
The H575 and the Cube together are just something! I couldn't be happier! Thanks again, Mark!
I'd also like to add that I picked up a slick leather Heritage strap for the H575 from Bob (GuitArtMan). Thanks, Bob!
Playing wise, I am spending time still with Why Don't You Do Right as made famous by Peggy Lee. I love the way she sang some of her most popular tunes. I am also revisiting some of the older tunes I have picked up such as Autumn Leaves, Beyond the Sea and All of Me as well as some not so standard tunes such as Sleep Walk. I am also still working on Georgia on my Mind but I will admit there is no progress in the past couple of weeks on it. I have found that I really like Why Don't You Do Right as a playground for someone learning. Nice and easy and slow changes make it easy for me to tryout the new techniques I am picking up such as adding the walking bass line into the chordings as well as trying improv as well as melody and melody imbellishment.
