  1. Finally got all my gear together in the same place for a group shot.

    n573972363_1294202_7907.jpg

    Back row: Gibson Les Paul Standard, Gibson Les Paul 1954 Reissue, Fender Mark Knopfler Stratocaster, Silvertone 1452 "Hornet

    On sofa from left: Fender mandolin, Mystery banjo, Vintage ukelele, Mystery violin circa 19th c

    Front row from left: Tatra Classic, Squier 51 aka Fender Mattocaster, Epiphone Chet Atkins SST, Squier Precision, Gretsch 6119, Gibson J-45, Eko Ranger XII, Burns Double Six

    Good lord, quite the collection! Is that a Bigsby on the Squier?

  2. There's a great site where you can download 4 or 5 700mb zip files, each filled with acapella stuff. Problem is, I can't remember what it is. I'll ask the person who introduced me to it later today and see if they can shed some light.

  3. Cameron off of Big Brother used to wander round my old school on parents evenings and such like. I can remember sitting in music one day when he walked out of a cupboard (which linked two classrooms) only for him to be shunned by the whole class.

  4. A Gordon Smith GS1 doublecut is sitting quite highly on my "guitars I fully intend to buy one day once I'm not broke as fuck and living on a shoestring budget" list. Keep an eye on the official site, because they sell models with minor imperfections at quite heavily reduced prices. There's nothing available at the moment, but worth watching if you've got the patience.

  5. I've been playing about with this through the day, and it's so far been brilliant. The adverts aren't that big a deal- I can handle 2-3 20 second clips per album if I'm getting to listen to it for free. I reckon it'll become quite a big thing in the next few months.

  6. Dear Uncle G,

    I went out running today in an effort to try and lead a more active lifestyle. However I only managed about 15 minutes before extreme nausea set in- when I got home I sat for half an hour trying not to be sick. Should I integrate this into my morning routine, or just sod it, eat more shit and start smoking?

  7. I think this could be the dullest thread on Aberdeen-Music unless you are some sort of sad guitar nerd. :D

    Stripey would have ruined this thread if it had been posted 6 months ago.

    I used to be a massive fan of DR- found them to be long lasting with consistent tone. They seem to be fucking awful nowadays though- the last 2 or 3 packs I've bought sounded ridiculously dull. For the last couple of years I've been using D'Addario 10-46 on most guitars and 11-52 on my Dean. I reckon I'm going to try a set of Elixirs next time I'm restringing, just to see how they fare.
