Ugly things and stupid money!

Breakaway - Gallagher and Lyle

I think it was Chris Spedding on guitar and maybe Roxy's drummer.

And talking of aluminium necks, a Travis Bean would be nice. Saw one for sale recently and couldn’t believe the price!

Always better to have put it on backwards in the first place, than to wake up the next morning with it all the wrong way round and no recollection of why.......

Currently reading "The Thrill of it All" - the story of Bryan Ferry and Roxy Music. Am only a Greatest Hits CD deep into them, but still enjoying finding out more about them....... Only paid £4 for the book - apparently it's worth about £50!

Guy Pratt has appeared on many of Bryan Ferry’s albums over the years, along with ace guitarist Chris Spedding who started working with Bryan early on in his solo career. He also toured with Roxy.

I’m sure we’ll get a good gang out for that one young Leonard 😁

Yellow. With matching hush-puppies.

I think we've all experienced putting some form of clothing on backwards at some point in our lives. When its underwear you have no option but go commando to sort it out. Its life and as long as we can all laugh at it then just enjoy the fun memory. That and the fact i like a good fun story when its someone else that's being laughed at. 🥰 Dave

@ash sold a 4001FL on here a few months ago - I forced myself not to bite!

If they need any advice where to visit i'm happy to share my travel experiences. I think i've been to almost every area of Scotland over the years. Apart from the extreme islands of course. Hopefully they get some decent weather as most years its wet and windy or sunny and windy or wet and sunny or any combination. I once had a weeks holiday at Loch Ness, 1st week in June and it snowed the first morning then glorious warm sunshine in afternoon and i mean jeans and T-shirt stuff and then rained late evening. Cannae beat the Scottish weather. So far this year its been a glorious Spring and typically 20 oC during the day which for us is a heatwave. 🤣 Dave

I'd quite like a Gus; I had a go on @Happy Jack's some time ago - I think he said he acquired it from @BigRedX ?

Band on the Run - Wings

(Hat)Banned From The Roxy - Crass

I wanted a Zon Sonus but as they never come up for sale ended up with a Legacy instead. Lovely bass but just not scratched the itch…

All around my hat - Steeleye Span

I've only seen two IRL, including mine. Yep - overpriced. I've never liked The Duke - I don't get the point of doing a headless and then putting normal tuners are the arris end.

And there's that Scottish sarcasm making a return trip. Couldnae beat it wie a big stick. 🤣 At the time i was very young and just accepted it as fact. How my views have changed over the years. 🤣 Dave

Actually he said a few things, but he didn't say "that's fine, I've already got a nice one from @Thor " otherwise I might have been tempted to keep it, especially once I plugged it into the Walkabout Scout + LFSys combination! It came from Hobgoblin in Canterbury, not Cambridge, so snatched from under the very nose of @Beedster

So glad I'm out of the world or updates and getting on with life with analog pedals 🤣 just joking. The Quad is great just not for me!

I can beat that - my ticket was free! (It was some promotion, but I don't remember which company.)

Again not so rare depending on which model you want. I've owned 3 and the Hondo copy of The Duke. However these too are now starting to edge into ridiculous pricing.

Ah, so there is. A decent price, and the Angus Young red finish with horns that I want! 💕💕💕
