The wise Mr Flowers comes to mind "I've got ham but I'm not a hamster". Or was it "I've got a badge but I'm not a badger"? Owning a car alone doesn't make you a driver. The moment you drive the car however....

The guys playing style & tone is obviously part of the Korn sound, so it is what it is. Not my cuppa tea but I'm not going to judge it musically. The thing that intrigued me was the difficulty I had in hearing a discernible note on the low strings. What does he tune it to? Are there tuners out there that can sense a low Z? Interesting.

I think it used to be a functioning bass guitar.

Just my tuppence worth... Don't forget to do an impressive slap solo at some point.. before, during & after the song. Bands love that. Talk about the gear you've brought ..in detail. Not forgetting to mention all the gear you've owned over the years. Bands love that. Name drop (even if it's the most tenuous of links). Bands love that. Ask the guitarist(s) why they're not playing a strat/paul/sg (delete as appropriate). Guitarists love that. Helpfully mention the singer's a bit "pitchy". They love that. Tell the band leader (on the quiet obviously, you're not insensitive) that you've got a drummer mate who you've played with for years, and he/she is easier to "lock in with". You're smashing it at this point, they'll love you. You're welcome. Sent from my bedroom. Don't forget to come & see slappys' one man band.... 🤠

Those 2 builds are simply beautiful. I can barely cut a piece of paper in a straight line with a guillotine, so have huge admiration for the skills required to make a guitar like those. The shape of these models are my favourite, but I've never found one I like to play once they're in my hand. Perhaps I need to play one of yours 😁. Anyway, lovely job @Gilmourisgod

Not last night, but recent Jo Burt gig. I'm obviously wiping away the spiders web up the dusty end, whilst doing my world famous Larry Grayson impression....."shut that door Isla.."

Or their nephew.

I can see where this "thread" is going. It's knot going to end well..

"crudely modified" One man's butchery is another man's "modification".🤡

"grief has a shaft stiffness" Never a truer word spoken.

Greyum sold me a lovely acoustic guitar. Wonderfully set up by the man himself and delivered to my grubby mits in person. Thanks! 😊
