    Took it to rehearsal.

     

    Well, it was a limited editions Epiphone Custom Shop one - not sure what was different aside from the tug bar.

     

    Looks absolutely glorious, but weighs a tone and still has some neck dive (I could cope if I really liked it). The mudbucker was just too dark and thumpy for me.

     

    Afraid I swapped back to my Embassy which is a lot lighter, better balanced and sounded way better.

     

    The band agreed the EB3 looked incredible, but the neck pickup just didn't sound right. Might be OK for a Cream tribute. 😞

    Is that a short scale jobby?

    Played at The Tivoli Theatre in Wimborne Minster on Friday night. It's a great venue, one of our favourites. A full house too. 

    It's a long journey from Yorkshire for us and we usually do it alongside other venues in the south west, but due to blo*dy Covid and

    reorganizing dates constantly, we had to do this as a stand-alone. Still, worth the hassle. 😊

    Blimey, what a trek!

  3. Layla - Derek and the Dominoes. 

     

    Liked this a lot, despite some of the vocal histrionics from Bobby Whitlock. YMMV.

    Clapton is discussed at length on another thread but for me, with one or two exceptions song wise, this is the end of the good stuff he did.

  4. Just set up a Secursus account, Article 6.2 (exclusions) of the Shipping Insurance Conditions is a bit of a bummer though, 

     

    "ITEMS SHIPPED THAT ARE SOLD/PURCHASED ON AN ONLINE MARKETPLACE BY INDIVIDUALS. ONLY OFFICIAL BUSINESSES WILL BE COVERED." (Their caps not mine).

     

    Pity as they seemed quite relaxed on the usual "guitar must be packed in a hard case" thing.

    I second this, Chris is a good guy. I’ve used Mor Music in Fishergate too who I believe now do a collect and drop service. Both were for fairly straightforward jobs mind. 

    I've used Mor Music too and they're good for set ups. They're on Fossgate, tucked away behind Ambiente.
