Love it...
One could go further and write down things like amp settings at venues. Followed by pedal settings at the same. This could grow into much necessary tedium. Plectrum thickness's for example.
It is supposed that Eric Johnson can tell what battery is in a particular pedal. He could become honorary president.

See, now I thought I was geeky 'cos I keep spreadsheets detailing my exploits at my PC football manager game!
There's something about the phrase 'string box' that sounds simultaneously geeky and exotic. I shall have to acquire one, and start another spreadsheet...
(By the way, I have CDO. It's just like OCD, but the letters are all in the right order, just like they should be).

I should probably do something like this to keep track of all the slightly unfinished projects. I tend to rush into stringing them up to play them with various little jobs left waiting to be done at the next string-change.

Actually, for all the joking, it IS a good idea - I said it wasn't very rock n roll, but I bet for every "too cool for school" successful rock guitarist out there, there is a guitar tech guy who does look after all this kind of stuff. Also I'm really into Eric Johnson's stuff lately, and besides being an amazing guitarist, he is a complete nerd about gear and setup - and the results show.
