NZGuitars.com : Filling you with GAS since 2003

Avoiding house painting, I remembered to put the vents in

Finally spending some quality time with the Peter Green AC15 cab

Average is now 41%.

Picked myself up a Sterling Sub Ray 4 today, in lovely sea foam green, will get pics tomorrow when the light is better, neck feels really nice with the satin finish, just like the higher end EB guitars I’ve played… just need to drop the action a touch and she’ll be a runner!

Suspect a new nut will be required.

Haven't seen clubhouse for a month or two, hope he's ok.
