Introduction

Post by Mattress5 »

Hey All.
Long time lurker on the forum but haven't posted much. Thought it was about time to introduce myself and show you my gear. I've downsized in the past few years, so now I'm down to my 2015 Martin D35, Fender CS Tomatillo Strat and my 2018 R8. I'm between amps at the moment so just using one of those Yamaha THR10's which I think is great for plug and play practice. I've got a few different random pedals but they're always coming and going.
Cheers,
Matt

Yeah, you would have. Looking to offload it in favour of a Tele. Probably had it overpriced on TM but I was testing the waters. Had a couple of low ball offers but no-one serious.

Joined only around a year ago? Not too long as a lurker really :) Welcome, and that LP looks killer! What amp would you be looking for next? Something to go with the Tele?

Wot he said. You're not doing it wrong at all!
A particularly pretty R8 too.
I was going to mention the lack of a Tele but I see you have addressed that. Just be careful about doubling up; I'm assured by those who know that a Les Paul achieves greatness when it sounds like a Tele. :shifty:
