    The Late, Great Britain?

    The Late, Great Britain?

    Must admit I am surprised this thread is still open. Are there special rules for some people?

    Do you think guitar music will ever be great like it was from 1954 to 1979?

    The answer to this question, I believe, would depend on your age. As someone who started playing guitar late 50s and played in a group, throughout the 60s, my answer would be 'NO' However younger 'millennials' may think differently. But does it really matter?. It's not a competition. As...

    Nicest R8 you've seen?

    Not gorgeous, but mine's a great player. Looks like a one piece top, but probably just well matched

    Amps you sold but should have kept

    Funny enough I replaced an AC30 with a similar Marshall setup around 68. Head was 100w though

    New R9

    Bought another one a couple of days ago. It's an R9 with a Hard Rock Maple top. Colour is Stanley burst, which I believe is named after the one played by Paul Stanley. I hadn't really gone out to buy another R9, but this one really sounded nice. The HRM certainly made the Burstbuckers a bit...
