Sorry I couldn't stay long lads. I only played 2 guitars but they were both absolute crackers. Molly's custom shop strat was probably the nicest I've ever played and Codedogs LP special was very special indeed. So much value for money and really great tones.
1935 Martin D-45, 1942 Gibson Southern Jumbo,1950 Fender Broadcaster, 1954 Fender Strat, 1958 Gibson Moderne prototype, 1959 Gibson Les Paul Standard.
1958 Fender twin, 1965 Vox AC30, 1966 Marshall JTM 45, 1977 Dumble OD Special.
Big black garbage bag full of original Klon Centaurs and TS808s.

Molly's custom shop Strat looked and sounded spectacular! I reckon those 2 guitars you played were probably at each end of the price spectrum among all the guitars that turned up today.

A very quick edit of the few videos I took today.
Think I need to get a camera gimbal to hold it steady for next time.
Corys one is a lot quieter, sorry about that Cory! I must have bumped the volume or something.

Molly's strat & DRRI lovely tones. Mule's Jag is hotness. Really impressed by James' Goldtop, Jb's strat, Codedogs LPJnr. Special mention of Reg's EF86 beast of jangly toan. Thanks all, it was fun :)
