Music made by....

So, It's been a long time since I blogged about topics besides new songs and new music production from Le'Vasiz. Since it's the end of the year I'm gonna make a special post today. As i was going through my history of blog posting , I realised that I was missing something. There was something that I've never really emphasised in this blog.
And the thing was our instruments. Currently, nobody knows what type of instruments Le'Vasiz have been using all this while. It's kind of funny though coz I've never gave a shit about the instruments we use.
...............Here it goes...........



The picture you see here is a picture of a guitar owned by our vocalist, leroy but is oftenly used by our lead guitarist , shahrul. It's one of those guitars from the Yamaha Pacifica series. the only difference with leroy's guitar and the one in the picture is the colour of the guitar. Leroy's guitar is in wooden-light brownish colour and black. It's a totally comfortable guitar to use by the way.




Cool, huh? Now this is a Squire M80 and it's used by Marvin. The one Marvin has now is black in colour and comes with a embedded black & white Le'Vasiz sticker behind the neck of the guitar.So, the whole package now is worth a million bucks. It's a totally okay guitar I should say . The price range isn't bad either. It's worth more than your house. NOT.




Now, here's the guitar that all you geezers should be jealous of. This is a semi-acoustic OVATION guitar. It's joel's and It's gonna burn a hole in your pockets if you ever purchased one . This is one for the music lovers. A strum on it and you're stuck with it forever. The sound you get from it is just out of this world. The guitar that defines Le'Vasiz music.
Funny enough, the Ovation guitar was only used twice for performances by Le'Vasiz but used several times for practices most notably the All That i Know Is That I dont Know sessions.



AHA. A headless bass, one of the things that separates Le'Vasiz from other bands.
The reason It's in the band is because it's just such a unique thing that you rarely see bands use these kind of creations . The headless bass is such a cool toy to have that sometimes you might freeze when u play on it. For example, Thomas, in our first few performances, couldn't move a single muscle while playing with it. He still manage to fork some music out of it though.


Too bad, I got no pictures of the drums Joel has been using but I got a picture that we are tring to get him. It's a TAMA and it's one of those rare sets from the brand. Look below.

Hopefully, there's a 50% discount for the drums in this holiday season.

Well besides that , we experiment our music with the keyboard too but It never makes the cut in our live performances. Again, like most of our instruments it belongs to Joel. Most of the time the keyboard just sits at the corner of the room waiting for someone to play on it.




I think I've explain it all . That's info for you people I guess.


Now, I'll tell you what Le'Vasiz would like to have for Christmas. Hopefully, Santa takes some time of his work and have a Latte while surfing through the net and coincidentally stop by the levasiz blog and see this post.



These guitars will be a great addition into the studios of Le'Vasiz. Fender stratocaster and two Gibson Les Paul.

If only we had a bigger a room , we could probably add this in too. Just for show.

.....or maybe not.
