How much was it?

91922[/snapback]

 

I paid £750. The good thing with guitars like Gibson and Fender is that if you're ever stuck for money they do hold their value and if you're lucky can even go up.

 

My other justification (to myself ;) ) is that it's pretty much my only vice. I've given up smoking, I don't go to the pub/clubbing, don't have sky etc.....

Is that a special? Are you pleased with it?

91985[/snapback]

 

Yeah it's a special. Got it just before Christmas - kind of a "omg I must buy a new guitar" thing which I stuck on credit card and only just finished paying off.. Worth every penny though, plays like an absolute dream even with my complete lack of talent. ;)

 

Totally awesome. :lol:

As for TV music etc, I'm in the process of getting a website done...it's a bit of a drag cause I've got to do it cheaply for now, but my wife had the brainwave of contacting the local 6th form to see if anyone there's capable/interested in earning a few quick bob.

 

I'll do it, I need the cash. ;)

 

I would say £750 is well worth it for that model.. Mine was £509.99 and worth every penny. :)

Let's PM..... :lol: maybe we can work something out ;)

I've obviously not always been so clean living so there's a few stories.... ;)

A bit, yeah. ;) Not very well, but it's always preferable to college work. :) Unfortunately I've mostly been listening to stuff like Satriani, Malmsteen, Dream Theater, Vai lately and can't play anything remotely like that. ;)

Very smart AF.

 

What type of guitar does Brian May use? has a distinct sound.

91892[/snapback]

 

Thanks TR, :lol:

 

 

*puts on trainspotter voice*

 

 

Brian May actually built his guitar when he was a teenager with some help from his dad. He calls it the "red special". It's possibly the most valuable guitar in the world as it's what he used on most of Queen's classics as well as being unique in terms of a major artist building his own guitar..

 

Having said that, I think BM himself commisioned a luthier to make a couple of very accurate replicas for touring etc. You can buy a mass produced version which is pretty similar for around £500.

 

 

*retains trainspotter voice anyway* ;)

Thanks AF. Look forward to hearing your music too.

Me neither! :lol:

 

I like the guy in the Chili Peppers (John Frusciante) more melodic and lets face it easier to play!

Not bad guitar for the price I paid for it (£140 including p+p)

Vintage guitars are getting a really good reputation from what I've heard...really well made for the money. Nice axe ;):lol:

I've got a squire strat and have done for 13 year. You don't need to pay daft money, Robert Johnson's guitar was shit, and look at him. Brian may plays a fucking mantlepeice and look at him.

 

Anyone paying over £300 for a plank of wood wants their head read.

 

OPINION!

AF, do you not fancy doing a quick sample and www.yousendit.coming it for us to hear?  Would love to hear it.  and any of you other budding Jimmy Pages.

 

N-O had a canny thread where a few people posted samples of their work that I enjoyed Here

Thanks  ,

 

Looks cool, I didn't know you played...what stuff are you into?

 

started off 10years ago playing nirvana, green day, pearl jam, soundgarden etc.

 

Then got a bit mellow and went for blind melon, temple of the dog etc.

 

Then got a bit punky ska into less than jake, millencolin etc.

 

now a bit more emo, fall out boy, story of the year, motion city soundtrack etc.

 

Also done a bit of old school thanks to my dads records, AC/DC, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath etc.

 

what about you?
