Gibsons are great playing guitars, just bought a Gibson Firebird V and the body through neck is a dream to play every time I pick it up it's in tune.... that said I don't think Fenders play as well, every Fender I have ever played felt like it was playing against me, like the next note was a ...

That Gretsch Synchromatic is gorgeous.

I remember rouge was some sort of Fender budget brand, but I could be mistaken.

I have ended my search for an affordable acoustic personally. I have found that acoustics come in two types... really fucking expense and crap.

If I were you I look for an old Guild or even a Yamaha "red lable" and ...

I'm pretty sure he's had sex with all your moms. Even the dead ones.

I had a Sunn Mustang, which was basically a strat rip off. It was a proper piece of shit. Worst guitar I've ever owned.

That's because they made of plywood. They are NOT re-branded Squires.

some squiers from that era most definitely were plywood. i have the evidence in my bedroom.

It's like Sleater Kinney but not as technical.

Also, the drummer scares the shit out of me

I have been wanting a Matamp for a while now but buying one is just so much of a hassle.

Okay I rang your man a Minimat goes for £359 vat inclusive.

Well done for coping so admirably with the hassle.

Website is lame, you call your man at Matamp and he can't tell you how much shipping is ...

Me and my father used to scour pawn shops together when I was a kid. I once saw a tobacco sunbust Hondo "Less Paul" and I asked him what he thought... he said "Hondo Crapo".

From then on I have never touched a Hondo...

Another time he bought a Flying V from a pawnshop for $25. It looked like some ...

Douche bags shouldn't be allowed near vintage guitars.

Yup. Any girl that buys you guitars is a keeper. Mine is always discouraging me from buying gear!

Here - they're much quicker (and will tell you if they have any GT4's kicking around) if you phone them up. Do be prepared to be on the phone for about an hour listening to Jeff's tales from the rock'n'roll trenches, though...

I see you can buy them by using the form on their website... however ...

I bought a Fender Champion 600 last week for €172.00 new and I am very happy with it. I like the option of the low and high gain inputs.

In the store I played through it using an American Telecaster and the tone was orgasmic. Makes me want to buy a Fender Telecaster as well.

Right now the only ...

Where can I buy Matamp products?

"best guitar i've ever played in my life" can end at "ever played" the "in my life" part is obvious

its aweful expensive for one big plywood body

Hey, here's the stuff I play:

1. el degas p-bass with awesome humbucker (don't know anything about it, apparently its a late 70s?)
2. Squier Bronco, stock.
3. Jedsen SG bass, shortscale, super fun to play
4. Epi LP ...

That's a gem of a Squire, great guitar! if you ever break up with the girlfriend send her my way!

Gibson SG's bite the big one for tuning stability and balance.

These ones are much nicer. They finished the design work.

I disagree, like all Gibsons they stay in tune perfectly. Also, the balance comes down to personal preference. I owned a Gibson SG Special that I had to sell but I really ...
