Nothing to do with me but could be useful to someone here. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/171138453561?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

Never a fan of these, they just look like junk 70's imports. Fender should look at bringing back something beautifully made and much more interesting, like Hamers !

If I remember correctly Scot Gorham auditioned for Thin Lizzy using a cheapo L.P. Copy and he still got the job. I wouldn't immediately discount anyone because of the equipment they're using but it can be a factor. If the rest of the band are using full marshall stacks, how would a line 6 half stack compete with the other players onstage volumes ? Jeff, the other guitarist in the band I play in has no interest in equipment but is a far better technical guitar player than me (with enough gear to start a rental company), his kit is adequate, not modern or old just good enough. I'd give him a gig because of his playing ability over me with all the gear any day. Even if he had money available to spend he probably wouldn't spend it on musical equipment, I wish I could understand how he does that !!

If I'm down and am enjoying it almost anything by The Sisters of Mercy, Floodland works well, If I'm down and need to get back up .. Always makes me want to jump around and reminds me what got me into music.

Ahhhhhhhh........ No, hang on let me light this up.................... ................... ...... Ahhhh.......... now I still can't see anything but now I don't care..

Perhaps only the "chosen ones" can see its glory ?

Is it just me or is the face of Jesus on the right side of this inlay ??

Had this one for a while now but only just managed to get my photobucket account sorted out so heres some pics. 79 Sunburst. One of the "Martin-UK collection" I liberated, many thanks to Martin for holding on to it for me. Serial Number 9 0940

Whats the best way to get hold of a signed copy ?

The older I get the better I used to be.

I.I.T.B.

Beyond awesome. He's a lucky man.

WOW ! Just as awesome as Gorch's Bri Diddley.

Did you pick up the red sunburst on ebay ?

A great band and a great song, had the pleasure of seeing them perform live many years ago.

It's been on ebay for years, nothing wrong with it as far as I know (no affiliations etc etc) but ........ Gold hardware doesn't seem too popular and its got dots on the fingerboard and for the price being asked it should be bound and crowned. So my abridged answer is it's too much dosh for the spec. It might be worth chucking a reasonable offer in as it's been around so long they may drop the price to move it.

Is a flat top sunburst with a TOM bridge from 82 like Moxies unusual ?? It's very nice regardless and a great story to go with it, though I'm not too sure I would have been too delighted about Les carving up the top.

Not a great deal at the price it's moved up to but at least it started off reasonable ! Looks like it was painted with a roller.

Not affiliated to seller. Not much else to say really, could be a good project or useful for spares............. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/251218947803?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

Try asking on the bands facefuck page.

I'd buy the special for a dollar.............

A beauty and a bargain for some one ! So glad I don't do wibbly wobbly stuff.

Haven't had one for over 6 Years, don't really miss it. When we had one we found our diet became much more junk orientated, the kids especially as they would nuke anything and everything whenever they got peckish instead of waiting for mealtimes. Pizza, popcorn, micro burgers, even micro fries, all that shitty stuff that if you didn't have a microwave you probably wouldn't want to eat but if it only takes a couple of seconds somehow becomes much more acceptable, even if the end result is barely palatable.

Happy Birthday Greg and thanks for all the great work.

Yep. I've noticed that email notifications for topics I'm following are not as speedy as usual.
