NWTFHTY Guitar Day

Post by Slowy »

New What the fuck happened to you? Guitar day.

Matsuoka M50.
Likes a Matsuoka, I does; preferably M50 or better.
Likes them even more when they arrive for solidly under 3 hunndy.

Can't work out if this one has been drowned or baked but it's still solid and plays nicely. Frets are very green so a de-contamination is booked in as soon as I get new strings. In person, it looks even rougher but it's all finish only. I really like it!

Right! Off to get my Willie Nelson on.

Anybody recommend some good high tension nylon strings?

Looks cool.

It's going to need new tuners. A bit embarrassed I missed that when I was inspecting it. Got distracted by the disease.

Still.. classical tuners. No biggie.

Mate, it looks way better than me; one of us ain't 40.

Nice - may it stink your room out appropriately.
