X 24. X The Harmony Hollywood-1 is a single-pickup hollowbody I toured with for years, then retired when I found another Hollywood that I now call "Junior."
I’m playing it through an electro-harmonix Mel 9 pedal to ape a cello.
The other Harmony Hollywood Shootout is a two-pickup version that I later bartered for a concentration supplement. The low grit is a Danelecrto baritone tuned a-to-a through a Moog Minifooger pedal.
The Harmony 420 amp has moved on without me.
No. Redemption lives in the moments dreamt & refined, moving forward by dropping & rolling back into the flames, regretting what you've kept (as-of-yet) unrecovered, still inside, warned & awarded, written unclearly, addressed-to-disgrace. Intentions, invented & exposed as the slow-passing cues from the wild, were lost in the procession. Forces had intended to go unreplied. But, out of disorder, you did who you had to defending your claim, knowing they'd accept (what had been) the last thing on your mind.
Redemption, along with some other lost-&-found home recordings titles, was pulled from a list of words I compiled over the years called No, a running registry of concepts that, when the mood hit me, I sometimes threatened to cut out of an imaginary dictionary.
