    Silver Star Tremelo Arm replacement

    Hello all Does anyone know where I can buy a replacement trem arm that will fit a Silver Star, please? I guess my model is from around 1980-82, not sure of the exact date as a previous owner scratched off the logo and serial. Thanks for any help.

    The falling price of budget guitars

    I saw today that Asda (the UK Wal-Mart!) are selling a strat style electric guitar and amp bundle for ?50 :o Aside from the moral issue of sweatshop labour, I don't have a problem with cheap guitars being sold. My first guitar cost around ?130 new (Tanglewood katana, mid 90's), plus the ?40...

    First record ever bought?

    There's a great section in Lost in Music by Giles Smith where he tells of how he claims the first record he ever bought was Let It Be, only to later realise he never owned a copy of it.
