Who plays guitar and what do you have?

[Angus Prune]

Been playing (badly) since about 1984. My first "proper" guitar was a nondescript student-size classical bought for £20 brand new from Rumbelows on The Moor for my 11th birthday, still got it in the back of a cupboard somewhere...my curent collection:

 

Encore Dreadnought Acoustic - abysmal guitar, action like a cheesegrater. Used as an ornament.

Tanglewood Seagull Acoustic - still sounds nice afer 15 years.

Encore "Coaster" Strat copy - surprisingly good for a cheapo import, not quite up to gigging but 21 years old and on its last legs now.

Hohner Baron Bass - not at all bad for its price (£50 second hand in 1994) but pickups on their way out.

Fender Standard Strat - wonderful axe. Virtually plays itself and sounds heavenly.

 

I also used to have an original 1960s Burns Vibra-Artist, a superb vintage instrument until some pillock went and sat on it:o:o:o:o

Been playing for 7 years. I've got:

 

Peavey Raptor with Bare Knuckle pickups (turd is somewhat polished)

Line 6 Variax 300

Heavily modified Epiphone Valve Junior combo.

Crafter FX550EQ electro-acoustic.

 

For recording/headphone practice I've got:

 

Behringer V-amp 2 which IMO is a very under-rated bit of kit.

Line 6 Toneport UX1 with all the Gearbox amp models and effects (I'll be getting the free Pod Farm upgrade soon)

Amplitube 2

Guitar Rig 3

Revalver 3

Been playin' on and off for absolutely years ( about 30 actually), ****....has it really been that long? If only I'd stuck at it I should have been brilliant by now. There's a lesson to be learned there somewhere me thinks.

Anyway just the 2 guitars at the mo:-

 

Yamaha APX1 Special, electro-acoustic.

1980 Fender "The Strat" Stratocaster in candy apple red, very nice but extremely solid and bloody heavy.

 

Marshall JCM 900 - 2 x 12" 50W valve combo

Boss ME-10 Multi-Effects

 

I really ought to do something with them.

The Cobden View have a guitar and music night on a Thursday - all welcome.

 

8 - 9.00 its a sort of guitar play together lesson (£15.00 for 5 weeks) then from 9.00 onwards - all musicians join in.

A really friendly atmosphere made all the better by people from all walks of life and skill levels just joining in.

 

All welcome, or just come along and listen and feel the mood till you want to join in.

Les Paul..

[Leon_Clark]

early 90's les paul standard through a marshall jtm 60 with a 2x12 extension cabinet. Also have a japanese squire strat from 80's and a 1996 cali start and also a limited run washburn evil twin blue quilt one of only fifty made (for sale if you ask me nicly)

[Leon_Clark]

And a peavey telecaster copy that I use for guitar teaching. Also have on loan a 2007 Gibson les-paul standard. I still prefer my early 90's one...the feel and sound of new Gibsons are not a patch on the old ones :-( why they have to make them chambered i dont know but it feels like a copy and not a guitar that should cost £1500
