Hey Mike, the 330 is a TONE machine that will nicely compliment your other guitars. They've got a different feel to them so try one out first, good luck!

Paul from the Guitar Gear Connection YT channel had a recent video which included an article from Billboard that said he gave it to Maurice Gibb for his 21st birthday in 1970. Just looked for it but it's not there anymore, but there's mention of it here.

Description says it's newly released, recorded during their tour with Roy Orbison.

The Beasties at this year's Beatle Street Festival in Osaka. They have a great stage presence and are the best in terms of the energy they put into their performances. They did a nice Hard Day's Night theme for this show.

My only experience with the Accent was putting one a 350V63 I used to have, and I never had any problems with it and it always worked quite well. Have you taken the arm off to see that the ring looks okay? I do remember that underneath the screw there were two washers to tension the arm, are they in ...

Been on a Garage Band binge lately and heard so many great songs that should've been big hits. Found this and was blown away by it's uniqueness and drive. Lyrics are in the comments.

Another well researched video from the channel with the video about their guitar strings. This one that just came out now is about George's second Country Gent and Tennessean, and it has an interesting connection to Paul's first Hofner.

Either way it's still a good find, though it beats me why anyone would ...

The Pacemakers & the Fabs with British singer Louise Cordet in '63. She had her only hit "I'm Just A Baby" in 1962.

My #1 for the last 21 years has been my midnight blue '02 620, and it's been a great all around player. I hope you enjoy yours for as long!

This is pretty awesome, but I saw the setlist and it's nothing that hasn't already been released on the 'Live at the BBC' sets. That being said, if it eventually comes out on CD I'll get it.
