Nice but not my style

My last guitar was PRS Standard with birds on the neck in black

Then bass guitar Musicman Stingray in Metallic Blue with Ampeg SVT valve head and 6 x 10 cab !

All i have now is a Washburn acoustic guitar picked up on ebay for £50 !

Classical guitar here, would have loved the electric but my fingers couldnae take it captain!

 

[Luulox]

That is a thing of beauty. Should be lovely to play, very jealous!
Cheers

Lovely guitar - you're a lucky man. I'm a bit of a telecaster man and currently own three of them which is a bit odd as I'm a keyboard player.

Now that is pretty cool Patrick. I am planning on getting a new mandolin soon and going to design and build it myself with the help of Mark Bailey from...

Can't wait to get started. Going for an acoustic/electric option.

I used to have i thinline tele, but hardly ever used it, i'm quite a large chap and it just felt too small.

This is a new Gretsch and plays far better than the 1960's chet Atkins i had back in the mid 90's before i sold everything.

I'm kicking myself at the prices guitars are costing now for orig vintage models.

I used to have;

Pre CBS Fender Jaguar in white wih pearl scratchplate supposed to have been a special for a beach boy, but not sure it was.
late 60's metalic blue Fender Jazzmaster
Vox Phantom 12 string
Gibson 330 semi
eppiphone casino
les paul custom
Rickenbacker 330
rickenbacker 360 12 string
Fender Coranardo
Gretsch Chet Atkins
Gretsch duojet
Vox semi acc
selmer semi acc
Plus loads of old valve amps such fenders,vox, orange, selmer, gibson
and all sorts of crap effects from 70's and late 60's that mostly didn't work.

would all be worth a small fortune today, sold for ... well no where near that.

Looks a bit Bert Wheedon.

I'll stick with a Fender.

No i got the sunburst, shows up fingerprints less than the rosewood version i used to have.

I have a cherry epi sg, lovely guitar but haven't played for years..

 

[dufferman]

Beautiful. I had a go on one or two but never bought one.

I play (well, used to a lot more than I do now) and am / was a Tele guy, I also have a Brian May Red Special which I adore. But it's the kind of guitar that only plays well when it's cranked up to 11.

Enjoy playing it!
