Hey there,

To my ears, if you like the deeper tone go fora 330 or 360 and even then they can differ especially between the years made. 600 series are tight and punchy. I prefer a delicate resonant sound which my 66 330-12 gives. I have a couple 68 366-12s which sound much tighter and brighter but ...

Hulloooo! I am gutted I won't be able to attend. One of my artists has a show in LA that I cannot afford to miss. Hope you all have a great time bonding and I look forward to coming to the next one!! Steve

My doctor says my sound hole is fine and actually fit for someone much younger. My blast hole is another story.....

Hi John - The Stringmaster is three 8 string steel necks, no pedals. I ordered it through Gelb Music in Redwood City CA from Fender special and had to wait a while as I wanted it in black.....I think they only made them in blonde and walnut.

I'll mark the diary and will be there if I am in the country.

I am going out for a drink now.....

Looks like you and me Phil.

Can't do Thanksgiving being an American...but just about any other time....the 23rd?

OK you dozy prawns.....we need to find a date for pints. Just off a UK tour with The Sorentinos and going through Guinness withdrawals. Need to re-ante. The 12 string separated us from the also rans! London area folk would be happy to meet anytime for chin wag and elbow bending.

Call a dentist....for cavity control.

(My 366 MG cavity looks like it was munched on by a a great white shark on one side.) must be good bait.

I am proud to be a Londoner today - everyone is coping with it in such a positive manner. Reminds me of the 89 SF earthquake. Eerie comes to mind. People just getting on with getting someplace else. All the buses in central London were moving empty back to the yard. I was in car and offered people a ...

I'll up for a Guinness anytime! I guess no jokes about more sustain and a longlasting "head"...must be a guy thing.

that's why you have to have a few amps.....my wife believes me too.

Hi Gary,

For a small practice amp, you can't beat a 60's Fender Vibrochamp/Champ. Chimes with Rickenbackers, spanks with Fenders and growls with Gibsons all due to the pick-up differences at volumes that won't kill you. It's my secret weapon for recording. Just make sure it's biased right. For ...
