    Washburn X50-QPro, Mahogany Body, quilt maple top, seymour duncan humbuckers, set neck, string through body, tune-o-matic bridge, rosewood fingerboard... buzz feiten tuning system, yadda yadda yadda... 300 ono?

    Line 6 Spider 2 30watt amp...50 ono

    I'd easily accept less for both...but would like something close to those marks, any questions about either dont hesitate to ask.

    Will upload pictures sometime over the weekend.

    Hi,

    What colour is it, does it come with a case?

    Cheers

  2. Hiya

    I have ABRSM Grade 8 singing with Distinction and Grade 5 Music Theory. I am a choral scholar with the University and just about to finish a BMus Music Performance specialising as a 1st soprano. I play sax and sing with two local covers bands which play ska and funk/soul. I sing a lot each week with university choirs and concerts. I am planning to sit my Diploma in music performance this summer.

    Cheers

    That all sounds very impressive.

    BTW, you will have to ignore Biz as he is just a foolish old man that used to skateboard down Kirk Street in the early morning.

  3. I'm a 40 odd year old guitarist. Sadly I have the talent of a 5 year old. But hey I like a laugh and would be up for getting something going. I like most types of music.

    BTW I was only joking about the talent thing, it's more of a semi talented 9 year old.:up:

  4. I tried to fax myself to Lady Goo Goo.

    I am nae very good at a this computer malarkey so I stuck my heid in the scanner and pressed the bile wash button . I expected the flash of blinding light, but was disappointed when I woke up dazed and confused in Lecht Polanskis den of iniquity with a Tattoo of Brad Pits arse - on my arse .

    Hey min! you look like that Liam geezer from Oasis. Cool or what? Where you going for that look, or are you like that in real life. You could start a tribute band. Maybe called your band Oassis or something.:up:

  5. A jeckle and hyde does a good enough job and it's like 3 pedals in one box. you can pick them up quite cheap on ebay etc.

    What I've found over the years is that if you have a dist pedal and kick in a od for a lead, as long as the od pdeal is set a quite a low gain setting, and the vol set high, this gives a good boost for solos etc. If you do it the other way round, then it mushes out IMO. It's also important to get the amp set right. he same with the gain.. If the amp gain is set too high and you kick in a dist set on high gain....mush city.

    Mix and match you pedal and amp setting until you get the sound you want.

    As I said a J&H work great for me. I set the red channel at around 12oclock gain, and 11oclock vol and the tone to suit my tastes. then kick in the green at the same time for solos, normally set at 12 & 12 It blasts through no problem. DSL50 head set on cruch channel with gain a 10oclock and vol to suit.

  6. No offence meant. Maybe it's just me, but I just have a completely rational hatred of covers bands, that's all...

    Why? Also, 'hatred' is a pretty strong word to use. I can understand someone saying they hate to see people dying due to war and hunger etc. However just because a band plays music by someone else........!

  7. Me....fuckin swear....no fuckin chance!!

    Not only am I an uncle....Im a fuckin great uncle in more than one way!!

    A Great Uncle eh! Well I don't care if you are the Great Man from Uncle you bearded bampot. I asked a question about guitars strings, and all I get is a string of abuse.

    Anyway, I bought a new E string (size 9) and will work away with this until I see if I should move the other 5 strings up to a full set of 9's...thanks for nothing.

    Buttttttttttttt!!!, should I use Dunlop ot Pick Boy plectrums. I'll not confuse you with grades or thickness etc. You choose. But not Yellow dunlops as I don't like the colour yellow. Or Red, but whatever you say I will trust your judgement.....oh and not Green ones either.

    merry christmas Uncle G
