Taurus

thanks for the advice! I would very much like to either make up a PRS type guitar or perhaps a les paul single cut and make a full body metal plate to be fixed ontop with hand engraving. thats the plan anyway

are there any distributors of grizzly guitar kits in the UK? i have seen some saga kits available in the UK, but no grizzlys as yet.

in my opinion there arent many new good guitarists who can make the guitar sound special (e.g. that guy from the darkness can play, but he is really a cover artist for brian may, there is nothing original about it). There are certain guitarists that leave such a big impression on people like Jimi Hendrix because he was so experimental and nothing like that was ever heard before. Satriani invented a new twiddly widdly show off, big headed guitarist style, i dont like the guy but he has got many kids playing guitar again. It doesnt matter who influences you, So what if you know a load of no-name guitarists, does that mean that you taste is better than anyone elses, no it doesnt.

thats real nice, was it hard to do?

Try simon & patrick solid top acoustic guitars

dont get laminated tops, because as they age, they get worse. Solid tops improve with age

Would you say something like a fender princeton 65 would serve better? Its not tube but its pretty loud for its size

I am getting together with the 2 drummers

that part scares me.

lol, absolutely, 2 drummers, should be an eventful experience

im thinking of buying a fender blues junior all tube amp, just wondering has anyone used one. if anyone has, would they reccommend it?

i just dont rate May at all, his version of god save the queen ontop of Buckingham Palace was just poncy. Overrated show-off, plenty better than him!

i can see the pictures, but i have no idea on the subject sorry

nice one, thanks

Both priced at £45, which one should i go for? or are they both crap?

has anyone tried making a gibson L6S?

if you want a tele, it would be cheaper to buy a tele saga kit and start from there

unfortunately im in the UK, so engravers (like gun engravers) are hard to find. I suppose the lack of guns means a lack of engravers. does anyone know any cheap engraves in the UK (preferably in the west midlands),that would be great.

i also agree that alot of oldfield recent work is close to elevator music (mainly tres lunas). The remastered tubular bells entitled Tubular Bells 2003 is absolutely excellent, such good sound quality. In my opinion he is a fantastic guitarist who is underrated, but you will never justify it i suppose seeing as all people remember is the piano riff to the exorcist .

you like mike oldfield?

hmmmm.... i dunno then, shows on my comp. is there a big space like its loading or just nothing at all?

yeh brian may is crap

i dont need the whole body template especially, just the headstock shape

does anyone know where i might find a scale template?

Beautiful guitars, far better looking than any PRS. Love the new stoptail bridge picture and the inlays are well cool. Bet they cost a bit though thanks for the link.

he sounds like a royal dick. probably best he did go!

the pic above is what i want, or something similar, including the bell logo

how much would it cost to put this sort of engraving on my standard fender neckplate? Plus how would i go about getting it applied? any reccomendations?

What in your opinion are the top ten guitarists ever?

mine has to be....

1. Mike Oldfield

2. Stevie Ray Vaughan

3. Jimmy Page (Led Zep)

4. Mark Knopfler (Dire Straits)

5. Gary Moore (Thin Lizzy/ BBM)

6. Jimi Hendrix

7. Paul Weller (The Jam)

8. Steve Craddock (Ocean Colour Scene)

9. Carlos Santana

10. Jan Akkerman (Focus)

that is mint. proper riff merchants guitar that is!
