Some great photos guys. Nice to see some new faces and new noises! Lucky for me I arrived late and escaped the gear spotlight talk, I'm not good at that kinda stuff haha. Quite happy to sit back and watch/hear everyone play.

Holy shit did that tiny Orange micro amp sound great or what ?! Thanks to Dave & Jeremy for organising :-)

Mttn3 and I are cousins.

Liked the Jap Tele , hadn't seen a Kramer like that in years, the little Orange had a big sound, the big Orange rig has Indie cred for days, buying a 4x12 on the way must surely be a NZG Fest record, Johns SG Ash still smokes, the Kay has the same scale length as a Fender Strat :shock: , few Ibbys the mahogany one has a lovely top.

I'd say Dave will grab a few sales from this
For all the new stuff Les Paul plus Marshall is Rawk guitar for me

Cheers for the organization , venue etc. A fun afternoon

Next time will sort out a few charts and get the room playing...for me I like to hear guitar in context :lol:

That'd be cool. If the church has been sold by then we should head over to your place ;-) Sounds like you've got it sorted.

Hey what exactly were those little clip-on tuners that were being compared? I could do with something like that, one that's small and goes easy on the batteries.

Soo... how did the Katanas go against the valve amps I see? Hold their own? Curious if any other glass lovers are now on the KOC waiting list?
No one ever died of hard work.. but why take the risk..
