What should I ask?


Pretty simple, ask whatever you want to know about. Try to keep it appropriate, but otherwise, just be yourself!

Q: Hi John, I was wondering if you could tell me about your
PRS SC that you have been using the last couple of years. It's the red(wine color)one with beautiful 10top.
Happy Newyear! Mj Chicago,Il USA
A: Hi MJ, That SC is my dream guitar. One day PRS came to me and asked me what I really wanted in a guitar and they built it to my spec. It has a thicker SC body, a thinner/late 50's style neck, with 50's style PAFs and a one of a kind custom Piezo Trem bridge. It turns out, Mark Tremonte (Alter Bridge/Creed) designed his guitar exactly like mine, minus the Piezo, but with hotter pickups... so, if you are interested in something similar, the new Tremonte style is the closest thing to it.

Q: Hey Mr. Wesley, I just finishing watching a PT DVD. You all put on such a great show. My question is, what is the band's chemistry like off stage? Thanks.
A: When we're on tour (in the dressing room and on the bus).... we can be very sarcastic and funny. Off tour, we all get so consumed in our projects, we go weeks and months sometimes without chatting. But back on tour, it's like were never apart.

Q: What can you tell us about the Lilly Pad Suite promo video.
A: A friend of mine, Ray Boucher, filmed and assembled the video. He used some of my live/show footage and some of his own footage. I think he did a great job.

Q: Will you be supporting Marillion on their North America Tour in 2012? I had the pleasure of seeing you during their Montreal 2009 show opening for them on Sunday night.
A: At this point I have not been asked to be a part of the tour. I would hope that would change, but only time will tell.

Q: Are you a fan of any of the Prog bands from the 70's (like Gentle Giant for instance),and if so,which ones? Merry Christmas as well to you and your family.
A: At times I've been a big fan of Gentle Giant and a lot of the more well-known 70's prog bands. But once I discovered Rush... and then Peter Gabriel solo, most of the other 70's prog stuff took a back seat. I try to revisit it when I can.
