If its the bit I think it was, it's mike oldfield from tubular bells fame. I'll have a check. If its the guy who couldn't leave the trem alone on his PRS narrow field thingy, then it's him. Not one of my favourites if I'm honest...

Nothing says love like 10lbs of rockin laquered lumber

Turn the treble knob down a bit on the amp?

Also maybe go up a string gauge. Austins old Centaura custom is solid maple with PATBs all over it, and when it arrived it was fitted with a set of 10s versus my usual 9s, and the meatiness of the thing was very noticeable in a very good way!

I believe we could describe this LP as: "proper-fucked" That is all.

..yeah, that one started out at about three grand £GB, about the week after Gary died - been a permanent fixture on ebay since then with the starting bid dropping regularly...

Have you seen the CCTV tape yet? Did you do it David Blaine? Or do we need to arrange an old priest and a young priest? B

Nice photo's too!

What do you mean girls...?

Hello m8 good to see you back! I nicked your whole style for my name on here! Take care old sausage, ben!

Wha wha whaaaaaaaaaaaa? Never seen anything like that before ! Uh-cre-abla! C'est formidable!

Damn it - got in too late... 2 quotes came to mind - one from my Dad - "they were shit then, and they're shit now" (use'd for any band/guitar/amp/<insert anything>), and one from a biz associate who deals with IT equipment brokerage when warding off a potentially trade that might be difficult to find another buyer for "oooh, you don't want to be stuck with one of those up the crack in your arse." Looks like alls well that ends well :-D Not that I know anything anyway

See if you can find a used Keeley comp - insta-sounds-better-pedal !

Um... Roland SuperCube 60 Seymour Duncan 84-40 (still regret selling this one) Orange AD-15 (Buy one if you can find one!) Mesa Boogie 5:25 which is the only one I have left!

... let me count the ways....! Purple TLE with Boomers and three hotrails and a scratchplate and reverse headstock and a big price tag Not sure if its been spotted already? No affiliation - for a start I don't live in the States! ...Mind you looking at it again - do I detect something fishy going on?

...and I brilliantly bought one about a year ago... ...but you can't have it! ;-) B

I've got 2 for you = Orange AD-15 if you can find one - 1 channel class A - no reverb - very very nice. Boogie Express 5:25 - max versitility cheapish second hand - ...still miss the Orange though....

Looks just like me with mine! Erm apart from you've got rock player credibility and a bound neck! B

Nice sig m8!

Seriously chaps, is it like open season with custom orders? I mean could I stick in an order for anything now? B

that '000,000,000 grit sounds like whatever I've been using - no mess and no damage- and no masking. The work of minutes for a decent polish up!

I use a small strip of very very fine (unknown grade) emery cloth - using the same piece for the last like 5 years! Need to be a bit careful on maple boards (or use steel wool) does the job for me - hope that helps! Ben

I've not had an issue using bog standard furniture polish like mr sheen as yet. If anything I actually like the feel of a neck post a spot of silicone - probably I don't know any better ... But no issues so far on anything I've owned. The only caveat I have is that I don't have corrosive sweat. So my guitars stay in good nick and don't need polishing regularly - no fingermarks or gunk... The low frequency of application might be doing me some favours? B Maybe wax free silicone polish was what I've mainly used? The cloudyness could be produced by precipitation of wax - especially if applied thickly in changable tepmeratures. Whatever I polish with is used sparingly and removed with elbow grease - I treat it as and very fine cutting compound and after application use a seperate clean cloth to remove as much as I can of whatever I've decided to spray onto the guitar... Any help?

This might be what you want................ Guyton Guitars UK http://www.guytonguitars.com/rsphotos.php Looks to has compleet accuaraaate metal wobbler an everyfing! B Brian May quoted favourably about these as well.... Yep Burns did have some replicas/interpretations over the years!
