It's a video of our band practice during a thunder storm... unfortunately the lightning surged through the house / through my amp / and into my guitar string... as soon as I touched my A string it hit the house and surged through into my string...

Here's some other videos check us out :) got some music!

I don't even use the telephone in a thunderstorm. Let alone high voltage electronic instruments.

Yes it was me that it happened to. I suffer with a lot of random medical issues from it but it's ok :)! Rock on!
