***The Official Guitar Thread***

Unexpected birthday cash appeared from the mother-in-law.. that should cover three sets of strings. Two sets of 7 string paradigms and a set of EXL 120-7 flatwounds for the acoustic once it's built. Strings for 6 string guitars.. 15-25.. strings for 7 string guitars 25-45+.. grumble :D

Classic fender sunburst tele and traditional pickup config - looks great.

Now the heatwaves are over.. and we're back to normal weather.. I can crack on with my archtop. I just have to remember where the hell I am. lots more to go.. and the back needs carving which I think is next.

EDIT: Few surprises on the guitars too -- there was a Gretsch and a Prince symbol guitar too etc.

Well they played cliffs of dover and an Alvin Lee country tune that looked pretty difficult (no ideal about country).

That was a great watch. Didn't expect to watch it all the way through but it just kept getting better. And it sounded fantastic at the end.
 
I am another one who has not touched ones guitar in 10 or so years.
When Covid 19 hit, and people were furloughed I worked all through the lock dowm. So I never got ot catch up on past hobbies, or clear the garage, loft, under stairs cupboard etc,...I know I can also hear the violins,... LOL

I have a westtone Thunder Active and I love it. many years agao I changed the pick ups for ones simular to whats on a Gibson SG.
At the back of my understairs cupboard in a 100 watt value amp. The sound is so smooth and I even have a over drive footswitch. Also I a small selection of Boss pedals I purchased in in 90's
