Guitar Conundrum

New Guitar Day? Obsessed with tone? 10 on the volume dial not enough? Celestion vs. Electrovoice? Cum in, feel the noize.

Now I just have to find a Rick Beato truss rod cover.

JD dissecting his guitar to make sure it's not fake. If you can't trust a greek paki limey that runs a questionable hodgepodge of businesses out of one weird address then who can you trust?
Cracking service whoever he is. Guitar arrived 26 hours after I ordered it, its nice, sounds great and is exactly as described.

@Greg_L You'll like this, I just rang the guy up to thank him for a good service. He's Turkish - just surrounded by Greeks.

For fuck sake. And here i am on week number five waiting for my new fake tweed Telecaster case. :lollers2: :lollers2:


Nice score JD! That is a thing of beauty. I think your going to love it. I feel like it is going to play like a beast compared to the rest of your repertoire. The one big thing i like about my LP Jr, is everything, be it a chord or a single note whatever resonates up to my friggin elbow. Everything is just solid and becomes an extension of you.

That is a pretty wild set up your proprietor has there. Industrious little street!

Yeah, if I don't have to go to the office I don't usually take the car anywhere - I can walk to the beaches, supermarket, pubs, friends houses, families houses etc. If Shan didn't have truck he'd probably starve.

Certainly a good food combo. Turkish and Greek food is lovely and curry is obviously lovely.

Probably not enough greasy cheese, processed meat, sugar or white bread in it for you.

We've all had a doner when plastered and asked for hot chilli sauce and then regretted it in the morning.

The Canadian Evolved Version of a Doner Kebab (Donair) is delightful. NO hot chili sauce for us. Just the turbo garlicy sweet sauce.

This is a really nice sounding guitar. Sounds a lot like my Crimson.

On the bridge pickup with a bit of crunch anyway. The neck pickup clean is very jazzy!
