  1. Something just stood up.
  3. Very very nice Sergio!

    Right now I'm drooling over the 30th anniversary G&L's. I've never tried a G&L before but I've only heard great things about them. Things like "They're what Fender aspires to be" and so on (only makes sense).

    I just can't decide if I want to go the "strat" (G&L Legacy) or "tele" (G&L ASAT) route.

  4. Thank you, Victor, Joe, Cal, Alex for the warm welcome to my new love

    Alex, I have to say that, while both of them are absolutely amazing (and GL's are indeed regarded as excellent pieces of guitarship), as an Arctic Monkeys I have a soft spot for the white Strats. If you've seen any early video by the Monkeys you'll know why

    EDIT. Just in case you havent: Dancefloor or Shoes. That's why I love arctic white Strats
  5. Well Sergio, you already know how much I approve of your axe-to-be and Alex, Strat ftw. Hoping to build up my 'rig' (I put inverted commas because it's not exactly much of anything really lol) once I get some wonga together, assuming I can keep the job going for as long as poss.
  6. Keep the job going and the rest will come.
  7. Hahhahahahaha, guitar is at the post office, and it's not opening until Monday. FAIL
  8. There's nothing dangerous with trying to fix the action and intonation of a guitar by screwing the screws oneself is there?
  9. Nothing.

    You already got your beauty, I guess
  10. I did, it has some buzzing frets that I'd like to get rid off. apart from that, the tone is gorgeous.
  11. It's always shocking to see Bono with an electric guitar... and even more if it's not his usual Gretsch! And even more if it's a Les Paul (I had never seen him with one of these):

  12. Awesome picture! Sometimes I wish he'd pull out a differen coloured guitar for once But his green telecaster was awesome at the end of last tour.

    I just bought a guitar guys..! I saw it in the store on the shelf. It was like seeing a traffic jam full of silver, black, white, dark red and dark blue cars, and then all of the sudden you see one car that totally stands out. I went over to try it, it was a telecaster, and as a rule of thumb I never look at the make of a fender before I try it out (whether it's mexican, highway 1, american, etc.) because I feel once you know what it is you already have some sort of bias towards it. So I started playing this thing and immediately said "Wow this thing kicks ass! It plays and sounds perfect!" I played it for about an hour, then finally looked at the make and the price tag, and it's a Mexican made Telecaster in "Lake Placid Blue" colour. I was blown away by the playability of this guitar, being mexican. I've tried mexican teles and strats in the past (used to own a mexican strat) and they didn't play very well in comparison to the americans, but this tele plays better then most americans I've played.

    I guess when you hear those guys say "With Fender, it's almost like there's 50 strats on a wall, but only one of them is great". Maybe that holds true with this tele, I dunno, either way it's awesome. Went back the next day and bought it after playing it more. I'll take pictures soon, after putting a pearloid pickguard on it, because I think that would make it look even more awesome.
