[TANGODANCER]

The "Stars" album of Simply Red. (No, I didn't buy it, it was free in The Mail on Sunday today)

[Dave Sutton's barnet]

Well for the first night in four, I shan't be playing a 12-string Rickenbacker 360. So I might give my ears and mind a rest. That said, I've just finished reading Things The Grandchildren Should Know by the bloke out of Eels, so I'm vaguely interested in re-listening to their albums.

A gay guitar if ever there was one.

The only two guitars I never managed to get in my collection that I wanted was a Rickenbacker and a Gretsch White Falcon!

Rickenbackers are stunning!

[boltonboris]

Downloading a 4cd set of Ludovico Einaudi - Great stuff

Even if I do snigger at the word 'pianist'

[Dave Sutton's barnet]

Apologies - I meant the 330. Soft edges are for wussies.

[Lord Kangana]

I have a Gordon Smith (one of only 3000 or so made of type).

Regrettably I haven't picked it up in anger in nearly a decade.

Get twanging. I had a brief go of a Gordon Smith 12-string during recording. Luscious sound.

Nice. My pride and joy is a Gibson custom shop J-200. Only 250 made. Emmy Lou Harris has got one of the other 249. Found it lurking in a now defunct guitar shop in Clitheroe. I feel some guitar porn coming on.

[Bruce Rioja]

Pah. Get yersen a nice hand-crafted Tanglewood Odyssey into your collection.

By way of the title of the thread, on the back of the guy's stunning set in the Festival Hall last night I can't tear myself away from Lloyd Cole's Music In A Foreign Language.

[FD]

My pride and joy(s) are my Gibson Les Paul Custom and my custom Japanese Fender Telecaster, beautiful guitar that one, marble scratchplate...

People often don't believe there's much of a difference between a Gibson and an Epiphone copy, but unless you've heard a real Gibson hold a note, you just cannot be told

I used to own a 6 string. sold it within a week. Live and learn....

Was a Gresch White Falcon for sale in the guitar shop on Oxford Road not long ago. about seventeen hundred pounds if I remember.

I own a "Cuenca" Spanish guitar and a "Raimundo" flamenco guitar. No rock weapons I'm afraid.

Aye, he's a beauty is Monty, to give him his name. Gold plated tuners, and the right grain in the wood is only found in 1 in every 100 maple trees (they use the other 99 for lesser instruments). Strum him and then put your hand on the body. The vibrations make you shiver. He even smells nice. There used to be a picture of me playing him in the 'what do you look like' thread. That was at Wembley in the 1999 acoustic guitarist of the year final. Happy days.

I've also got a Taylor 514 ce - great fingerpicking guitar, a Gibson ES335 - utterly awesome, and a Walnut Les Paul bought new in 1979, which is probably a rarity by now, although it probably isn't exceptional in value.

There's a 1938 Gibson Spanish guitar in the Oxford Road shop I mentioned. They daren't put the price on it. Just says "Ask"
which is very ominous.

Interesting. Less than 70 of those were made and there must be few still in existence.
