Inspired by JohnnySommerset, I've decided to stic up pictures of my guitars. This is my main Telecaster, slapped together out of a few well chosen bits and bobs.  My beloved Jaguar, wanted one since I was 17, finally got one when I was 26. Had to be white with a tortoiseshell scratchplate.  My latest aquisition, Danelectro 59 DC  Another Tele I built from parts, te replace my SG  My b*rstardised strat, 1 volume, 1 tone Fender 57ri pickups and the thickest rosewood fretboard I've ever seen  1964 Guild X175 that I was given as payment for some welding. Was a complete wreck when I got it. No bridge, half the tuners missing and stripped to bare wood.  My main acoustic Walden D560CE Cost me peanuts, sounds amazing, ah the joys of working in a guitar shop.  1971 Epiphone 12 string. My dad bought it brand new and it's been in the family ever since. Currently knackered, tries to fold itself in half when you string it up. Working on fixing it.]  And finally, my cheap ass mandolin. Cost me £20, good for a laugh.  |

It is pretty sexy isn't it.
Not bad for a £5 house clearance item. restored on a budget.
Respray cost me 2 bottles of wine, traded the 3 tuners it did have for a set of 74 Fender tuners. Vintage Guild tuners are rarer than poor quality wobbly children's play pony manure. Got a set of tuners and a bridge from Brandoni guitars and job done.
Sounds amazing

I work at Music World on Queens street in Ipswich.
Yeah, I play a bit, better at modding than I am at playing. I just like to have lots of guitars.
He who dies with the most wins, lol

I reckon you must have been thinking of The Guitar Shop, It closed down a couple of years ago, my mate Will worked there. Just reallised I forgot to put some pictures up My Amps, which surprise surprise are Fender. 100 watt hybrid with a single 12 inch speaker, never been drowned out by bass players so it's loud enough for me. 15 watt practise amp, only because the 100 watt is fat too loud to use in a second floor one bedroom flat.  Got pedalz? Electro Harmonix small clone phaser MK1 Marshall Guv'nor, the new ones don't sound anywhere near as good. Original Jen Electronica Cry baby, £30 cash convertors bargain, the Jim Dunlop ones don't sound as good. Yamaha DDS20M Digital delay/sampler. Boss DS1 distortion Boss SD2 dual overdrive A/B box because I like to run my stylophone through my pedals and it's easier to stomp on a switch than change leads half way through a song ;D  |
