Hi all,
Bored stiff with isolation I thought I would write a mini album inspired by current events. 8 tracks and all rather prentious. It opens with monks and nuns singing away. Then a set of rock songs. Great fun doing this.
Recorded on a Spire. Superb little unit, check it out...
Recently bought a 2015 Les Paul JUNIOR (edited, not a Special). Really impressed with the auto-tune. Getting a lot of bad press from 'traditionalists', but works for me!
Also rather like the slightly wider fretboard.
Damm nice guitar as well. Set excellent from the box.

One for sale locally, about 300 quid.
Very little here. Knocked out by ishibashi? Maybe toksi factory?
Is this a bargain, or just a basic low end not as good as as a tokai les paul?
Thanks!
Have owned, (and still own) a fair few guitars. Gibsons, fenders, burny, sg2000, tokai, orville etc. Mainly les pauls. Some top of the range, some mid range.
The guitar is always come back to for sound as well as feel is a humble greco mint collection from 89. The others try hard, but nothing...

Have a (nearly) finished version of this with crashing guitars, but we had just listened to a Left Banke album and thought, why not?
Spliffs all round!

Looks like a basic mint collection. Good price?
Hi Guys,
The newie is unashamedly pop. And theres nothing wrong with that. Strangely, I sound a bit like Midge Ure. Unintentional I assure you.

Yeah I know this is all a bit vague, but which one of these two is likely to be the better bet? K Series Orville or an 80's set neck CSL (Ibanez).
Not looking to keep as an investment, though I wouldn't want to pay over the odds, be using it to gig with.
They are a fair drive away so wont get...
I feel sick.
Saw ad on Gumtree for an Orville, ?100! It didn't have strings or tailpiece. Other than that, really good nick
Emailed the seller 30 mins after ad went up, "sale already agreed, bloke calling tonight"'. The seller only lives a 10 min drive away, so offered him progressively...
Hi Guys,
To date my searching on gumtree/ebay has been a bit fruitless.
It will restrict options, but do not want to import and rather not use the post. Prefer to collect, but might take the risk. Do some travelling so anything in the southern part of UK is fine. Maybe further.
This is for...
Was looking for a Black Custom from the 80's, but whilst checking ebay came across this one. Looks rather nice.
Guessing its just a run of the mill 1979 one? ie Nothing really special...
Hi All,
Whilst on a business trip I spotted a nice looking black EGC LP Custom. Dealer says its '1976'.
Looks like a mahogany body, maple top, mahogany neck, fret edge binding. Very dark fretboard - rosewood?. He says it has original p/u's with readings 7.59 K Ohms DC neck and 7.66 KOhms DC...

Was thinking of buying this one, (if price is right).Looks rather nice.
Asked buyer for serial number, unfortunately there isn't one, so im guessing its Korean? As its an ebay sale doubt he is...
A mate turned up at a pub gig with a head and a Stagg speaker. (a 10" thing with a bass bit). He proceeded to play and it sounded fabulous.
So there's the question. Are we wasting our money on specialist name cabs? Is it cheaper just to run a head through a pa speaker?
Bob
Tried this out today. It thought it sounded excellent.
'Cranked' it up to 3/4's on the 'loud as tube' setting. Was pretty loud, not sure if it was quite as loud as a 30 watt tube, but loud enough for small gigs methinks.
Went through the different settings, basically a range of crunch...
