I personally favour the Rickenbacker:

Isn't that a Gibson Grapnel?

"Cheapest guitar in the house" - from what I could see it was a Cort.

But only if they stray into your Cort-i-zone 😊

Just place a banjo in your front window.

You'll never need to worry about anyone coming near the house.

And a rocking chair on your porch.

5.6 kilos.

Wow, rather more than KSD 5er then. I need to get a comfy strap, that's for sure. My jamming pals take the p**s when I play seated.

Why did I sell all my heavy basses ?

My recent KSD is 13.5 pounds, Having lavished some cash on the thing I reckon I'll use my handy rounders bat to repel boarders. What was your heaviest?

Obviously!

Forestalled me by seconds, what took everyone so long!!

That snot green Vulture thing on another thread would be terminal, along with Gene Simmonds' axe thingy.

Reading a lot of the posts on here has made me realise I generally dislike music that is predominantly male orientated! I have tried to get on with heavy rock / all forms of metal / prog / jazz rock / anything else that is shouty or stupidly angry etc etc. Of course these genres are not exclusively 'male' but do seem to attract a larger male following than female. I've always been drawn to stuff with a groove and a 'tune' - something basically singable and/or danceable too! Fortunately Mrs CP likes pretty much the same stuff that i do, so no real problems there - she has even enlightened me to Leonard Cohen! If I played a lot of the songs at home that I've listened to on this post I would certainly now be single. 😁

The only musical argument I had with a Female was when she used MY party Stereo Eqpt to play the Proclaimers.

I've seen a chap in Stafford using a Trace 350 with a BF Big Twin, Will check my 2 week old lottery ticket. Would be useful as I live up 64 steps. Rationale Rationalisation time. !!!

Def, Sid Vicious found that out at a gig by hitting someone over the head with his. Probably the best use he ever got from it...

Yes, that bit from the Swindle film was evidence of it's efficiency. JJ Burnel had more respect for his instrument (& ability X 100). He had recourse to considerable martial arts skills instead.

Haha yes Allan's Music seems to be a little challenging to people who come from different listening habits..... When I feel like I need some alone time and recharge, I listen to his music. My girlfriend thinks its weird....she does like some John Mclaughlin though! 

The ex sang in BBC symphony chorus and liked Messiaen, Henze and Bartok. .& from Weather Report to 1990s rave. My Stereo used to get some workouts.

Rationale / Rationalisation seems to be an elastic concept Mr Black. !!! Then again I suspect that I'm starting to get silly myself 😂🤣

Allan Holdsworth usually does the trick for me.

You can now blitz people with the Eidolon double CD, about 150 minutes of Allan. Luckily my Portuguese neighbour's son, no mean Fado'ey guitarist has now discovered he loves Allan. His girlfriend blames me however 😂

Anything by Allan Holdsworth... but boy do I like it!

My ex firstly heard Gong Gazeuse , saying oh no not hippy trippy crap. She loved it. Secrets became her favourite. She accompanied me to an AH gig @ Brentford Waterman's Arts Centre, there weren't many females at Holdsworth gigs.

A really heavy Precision then. Peavey T35/40 an option.

Something with a CFR neck.

Haven't even attempted to work out what percentage that Is, brings it down to that critical below ten grand price point 🤣

There. Fixed.

But the neglected masterpiece Mouse Droppings by the Small Faeces...

Aaand, got a much much bigger Amp.

Ah but is it a AK37 or a AK74 or even a AK M ?

Lots of Chinese copies too, Chicken-nikovbackers?

Yeah man we were 20 gigs in, loads of awesome gigs have gone tits up.

 

Should have been in Ibiza last week 😭.

At least 90 percent are rescheduled for next year.

 

Just itching to make loud noises so bad.

 

Yeah it's a bugger. Either is gonna be killer 😬

Suspect that we might have heard you from Ibiza sir. Wish I could afford any Barefaced stuff, making do with Trace G.A.S instead.

-If you decide to add another cab I have a Trace 2X10 as well.

Am actively considering an additional cab. These aren't really courier items, am picking up from Chimike. Know Radstock/Bath area fairly well. Will get back to you on this, how much for 2x10.? Wish Mike still had Brightbox (ultra rare aren't they?)

£230 for the amp £20 for delivery. Cutting me own throat etc. 

Am PMing you now. My neighbours and jamming colleagues will lynch me.  Just got Chimikes 1818 so what the hell.

You're correct, mixed names up, total overkill mind. A sort of Bond Villain rig, except it would reactivate the dormant volcano. Am getting the cab however.

While I'm pretty sure it would be fine with any amp , powerful enough to drive it, I have no experience with Laney amps, so was hoping that someone else would chip in here .

must be some Laneyites about !

What TE heads do you still have avlble. As previously will pm you at a more sensible time tomorrow.
