My band covered the single 'Money' back in the 90s. I thought the songs were good and I saw them a couple of times Just listening to the album now, at work, still sounds good

I used to sell a lot of them, when I worked in a music shop in 1989-91. there were pointy ESPs too Charvettes literally flew out the door

yeah, weighs a ton

I've been able to buy the strap buttons seperatley for ages. Allparts IIRC

yep that's mighty cool

I've still got a BLX80 and a hartke 2x10 HA1400 combo. Everything else is class D and neo. Even my guitar amp is new technology. Vox MV50 AC. It's awesome but it goes into a vintage 30 loaded cab. My pedal board weighs more than the 1x12 cab, now that needs addressing. I still have all my old guitar amps, an early 80s 50 watt Marshall head, Vox AC30 CC2X, WKZ Little Devil 50 watt head, WKZ Little Devil 50 watt 1x12 Combo and last but not least (you guessed it ) WKZ El Diablo 18 watt 1x12 combo. Various 4x12 cabs (all WKZ of course). None of which will probably be used in anger ever again. All far too heavy for my aging shoulders

why dont you just use a UK mains lead. Same voltage etc etc. My QSC rig came the same, with euro plugs but IIRC they had chucked in UK ones too

and the singers, they wouldn't know when to come in🤣

My friend and part time band mate blew £20K on a 1954 Les Paul Goldtop. Took it straight to the boozer for his gigs, but sold it in the end as he was worried about it being nicked/damaged etc. I try not to gig with expensive guitars and basses now, that way I really dont worry about them

I'm looking for a 2nd black JMJ Mustang for my wife. She loves mine and wants her own

+1 for the Police. Really really fantastic

very good, loved it (it's not often I listen to the whole thing either)

passive here too (except my Ibby MC940). Everything fully open, always I haven't used the ibanez for so long, I cant remember. Probably active with all eqs in the middle and volume full up

I used to get a drill out too, Tubescreemer on full , octave pedal and chorus. Mental

superb idea, I may try that at my next (last) Policed gig, next weekend

great story, now where's my old '62?

My mrs joined customs and Excise,many many moons ago. She tells tales of lots of drinking lol. It sounded like a great place. She has regularly gigged whilst on shifts. It can be done, also easier when you're younger. In my mid fifties now, I couldn't imagine doing a gig after a run of nights, or early shifts, but at 19 I would gig, be out all night and then go to work

I have the X1204 and replaced it with the Allen & Neath Zed 10-FX. The Zed 10-FX has much better sounding pre amps in it. Much much more warm and musical. Defo worth the extra money (I also have a Zed 22FX, which is now 10 years old and still going strong)

Amazed by Lone Star the bruno mars song, Marry you (or what ever it's called)

lovely enjoy

depends what you're trying to sell really

same reason I bought a Flea Jazz. Grew up watching Herbie on the show 'Marc'. Had them on video and watched them over and over. Fender made a one off Hebie relic. It was in GAK. Looked awesome. Then it was traded to Limelight and disappeared ti Finland IIRC. I wished I had bought it now. I have a JMJ Mustang, no idea who he is but man, what a neck and great pickups. I had most of basses Sting used in the Police, for my tribute band Had a WHUFC Steve Harris bass. Massive hammers fan me and I liked the neck. Too heavy Had A Sting P bass. Lovely neck and sound but bought the Bravewood, sold the Sting Also have a Jerry Donahue 'Vintage' tele. Love the wiring on these A Slash AFD Les Paul too. Best Les Paul I've owned. oh and a Brian May red special. Great sounding guitar, used in my 80s band
