Complete with facial expressions I hope. I do like a bit of JW. As old as it is, the opening chords of Turn To Stone still make me want to turn up the radio.

Matt P Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 i Haven't bought anything but i did acquire this Chord 3/4 sized acoustic on Tuesday via a freecycle -type post on facebook, i am assuming that the previous owner was a beginner as they had stickers to show basic chords on the fretboard, i gave it a cleanup and some adjustments and made a clear scratchplate for it and it play's fine, not expecting it to sound amazing but for playing in the garden or round a campfire it's fine. (and it was free!) I left the headstock stickers on as i don't mind them. here it is next to my McIlroy AS25 for scale ( the McIlroy absolutely stomps on it in terms of tone but then it would!)

You mention GC, do we assume that you’re US based? Yes, sorry I didn’t mention it. GC Guitar Center. It is where many Americans go and play and buy equipment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazz Club Posted August 1, 2020 Author Share Posted August 1, 2020 (edited) On 30/07/2020 at 11:10, Jazz Club said: This has also arrived. Lovely looking guitar nicely set up straight out of the box. It’s quite a bit heavier than I thought it would be. Will give it a play in a bit. My mate popped round to pick some naim speaker cables up yesterday with his 60s Fender Tele. Have to say we both had a jaw hit floor moment when he played both. Yes there was a SQ difference but not that much to warrant the massive price difference. He loved my Fender Squire Mustang but was blown away by my HB SC450 Plus LD Vintage. He ordered one when he got home.

Jazz Club Posted August 4, 2020 Author Share Posted August 4, 2020 I’ve bought a couple of these £20 kits to add to our cigar box and Ukulele collection after stumbling across it on YouTube a few nights ago. looks like fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
police squad Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 I bought one of these. It's very good and gets those BM tones too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezbass Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 I have an itch for an LP junior, SG junior, etc. With the price of the HBs, it’s hard to resist just pulling the trigger. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
