Re: Stolen (2013): Old Pine '52 Fender Telecaster (60th ann telebration)

Seems a bit bullshit because insurance didnt even cover the cost of the guitar (4k), let alone the cost of the pedals and otehr gear I had to replace...

Re: Stolen (2013): Old Pine '52 Fender Telecaster (60th ann telebration)

Yeah I did put in an insurance claim for some of the stuff that was stolen - probably about 5k worth of gear? pedals, leads, power supplies, police radar, breathalyzer, but the big ticket item was the guitar. They paid out fuck all. All reported to police and on file and I still have the original re...

Stolen (2013): Old Pine '52 Fender Telecaster (60th ann telebration)

Every year or so I get a ping reminding me of a guitar I had a while back that got stolen. Wanted to put the feelers out for it again because It's only one of 300 made in the world, and probably 1 of 1 in NZ. It was stolen in Dec 2013. It's a Fender Telecaster Old Pine '52, (one of the 60th Annivers...

Re: AC15 - what's the go?

I've been using an AC15ccx2 with the blue celestion speaker for ~4-5 years, gigging doing lots of diff material, seems to handle it all well..and it's still great for me. The Reverb is average. The Trem is very useable. The amp itself is perfect. Pretty fucking heavy for a 15 watter though. It defin...

Re: AC30’s; gentlefolk, help me dither

I have an ac15ccx with a celestion blue speaker. The reverb is trash but I have a pedal for that. The amp itself is awesome and I have yet to do a gig that it wasn't loud enough for. Great tone imo and very versatile. I don't mind the trem on it either.

Re: How do I make a Single Coil sound thicker?

Surely using the tone control would work well?

Re: Roots and/or alt country- eddikat me

I have a good idea about what alt country is but the term roots confuses me sometimes (even though I use it a lot). People tend to have tonnes of different ideas about what it means. Yeah, I'm not sure either. It always makes me think of fried chicken. It's a pretty difficult thing to quantify- a l...

Re: New Stolen Gear - 11th Feb 2014...

still wondering who the fuck has my tele (whitewash 52 old pine). God that shit is frustrating. Replacement guitar doesn't compare really.

Mucking around on some blues tunes

My fingerstyle playing is not what I'd call an exact science but here's some clips anyway :lol: . Got out the old hollowbody I haven't played in a while. Has a cool vibe for this sort of stuff IMO. Usually play a tele http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KiH1_uF8GFg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SNJvVbL3...
