Green Monster

VIDEO: Twenty minutes from the end of the night, wrapping up the second set after two hours onstage. cB3 is an amazing trio…the level of musicianship is worth the drive: Chris Buono, Ben Stivers, Tobias Ralph.

Chris saw me walking through the open glass doors of Triumph Brewing Company in Red Bank, New Jersey.

“Green Monster…? Let’s do it.”

Chris had only played Green Monster for a few minutes, a month prior. Keep in mind he did not know I was coming. Did not know I would bring the guitar. And he was unfamiliar with this latest prototype of my new Pisces™ trem design. (patented & multiple patents pending)

No time for a soundcheck. Gig started in ten minutes. Jedi Master test pilot mindset.

“Pisces™ trem is like no other. I am constantly discovering new whammy phrasing.” (Chris Buono)
