  1. in April of this year I had these the Sterlings are gone so just the SR5 now and also these (a different kind of porn but still porn all the same) Albert Lee Steve Morse
  2. I'm glad this has gone-it was doing my nut in. I tried and tried to raise the funds for it but came up badly short every which way still the flipside is I can now put petrol in the car,food on the table,pay my council tax etc
  3. +1 on Bill Nelson. 20 odd years ago I bought his album "Chimera". Loved his work ever since.Massively talented and even more prolific. other guitarists I like for being a bit different are Robin Simon(Magazine/Ultravox),John McGeoch (RIP)(Magazine/Banshees) Will Seargant (Echo & The Bunnymen) Johnny Marr (The Smiths,Electronic etc)and Charlie Burchill for his early work with Simple Minds Drummers I like would be Steve Jansen (Japan) and Budgie (banshees) from a songwriting point of view...John Foxx (saw him doing the metamatic album at the Barfly Glasgow last year and it was fantastic)the guy from Anthony and the Johnsons and The Blue Nile I'm not really up on other instruments but i always liked Andy Mckays sax and oboe on the early Roxy music stuff and Billy Currie's keyboard and violin with Ultravox

  11. Matt, a m8 of mine up here bought the L-1500 off me at the end of June. I got him into G&L when he bought both Legacy and Invader XL guitars off me. he wanted a bass,wanted another G&L and I wanted a holiday in Turkey with the girlfriend so worked out good.Man that bass had one spiky aggressive tone! Ste, ah yes the deal that never was. Am pleased for you,you found a bass thats tickling you. I keep hankering after a Bongo 5 still but then i just think of how much I cant be doing with where the neck pickup is and i forget about them again as soon as. This could go on a long time......... cheers Keir

  15. nice one on the black cherry!
  16. thats a lot of bass for £204!
  17. I'm in Glasgow tomorrow morning. If they;ve got the spalted maple Euro LX5 they had,on the above special (or any other Euros for that matter) my resistance will most likely crumble and I'll be getting the plastic out. fantastic basses.
  18. I had a Bartolini MMC in a Stingray about 10 years ago. It sounded nice and warm and fat but it was too polite and didnt sound like a Stingray should (to my ears). It was replaced with one of the Ducan basslines replacement ones..cant remember whether it was alnico or ceramic - they do both.... anyway it sounded much more like a Ray again I'd go white pearloid or black with red/maple. it looks great as it is now imo
  19. one of the best colours MM ever did. great looking 5.
  20. beautiful looking G&L. one of the nicest I've yet seen
  21. [quote name='lwtait' post='243676' date='Jul 20 2008, 10:42 AM']any pics of the ASAT?[/quote] np,.............. with the SB-2 and alone cheers Keir
  22. +1 The G&L Tribute L-2000 I used to own was an earlier Korean one. With regards to fretting it was better finished than the USA ones I have and the action was lower and slicker as a result. I'd have no worries buying another unseen
  23. Just a quick heads up...last saturday went shopping to look at Takamine,Martin,Taylor dreadnoughts but ended up coming away from GuitarGuitar Glasgow with a Tacoma JM9 Jumbo. solid spruce top,solid mahogany back and sides,satin finish,made in Tacoma,Washington and came with a beautiful plush Tacoma case. RRP £699 I paid £329 absolutely beautuful guitar with a sound to match. I tried 20 acoustics and for the price nothing came anywhere close they also have the mini jumbos,dreadnoughts and roadking models around the same price as well and a number of higher spec'd models going cheap too.some have Fishman & LR Baggs electronics I believe the centre soundhole models have been discontinued hence the crazy prices. [url="http://www.guitarguitar.co.uk/acoustic_guitars.asp?BrandName=Tacoma&guitars=26"]http://www.guitarguitar.co.uk/acoustic_gui...&guitars=26[/url] another Fender owned company,Ovation are also having a load of their USA models having production switched to the far east. I've seen some great deals(half price )on Balladeer LX's on the bay of late
