Re: Teton Guitars (7 replies, posted in Guitars and accessories)
To echo what the others say its what you feel comfortable with I have many guitars some high end some low all have their own characteristics . My son once said Dad why do you need all these guitars , one day he will understand ,at the moment my go to electric is a yamaha pacifica which I paid 50 pounds for in a junk shop my go to acoustic is an ovation applause which I've had for years and gigged all over .A high price tag does not necessarily make a good instrument .

Re: Old friends jammin (6 replies, posted in My local band and me)
Yeah Anna and Maria are friends they are siisters who run the place.Dino Nik was playing kajon. Most of the little cafe bars love it when we turn up and playthere are at least five places in Sitia I can walk into and play just for fun and another couple who will pay good money if we play an electric gig.I do like to play the small venues cos it helps their economy, times are hard here.

Topic: Still in Crete (11 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
Still in Crete sorting out the house sale so far its cost me nearly 6 thousand euro in fees and fines to make things legal before the sale can happen.Today ive just been told that I need to amend the contract we had with the previous owners as it does not show the correct area .apparantly ten years ago this didnt matter but now the government has changed the law making the current owners responsible for previous mistakes This will now cost at least another 2 grand .the system is so unfair .Apparently I can sue the builder but I expect by the time this gets to court I'll be dead.

Re: back in greece for a while (4 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
House prices have fallen dramatically we were lucky to find a a UK buyer as we can do all the money transfers in the UK otherwise it would have been hard to get the money out. .We decided that due to the proble m s with my health in 2015 we should move back to England permanently as my condition needs to be monitored even though I am pretty much ok now.

Pam and I are back in greece while we tie up the loose ends of the house sale so my visits to chordie may be a bit hit and miss over the next few weeks as we will have to rely on wi fi in the bars cos I wont be switching our satellite internet back on for the short time we are here.

Yesterday I picked up an old Columbus guitar in ineed of some tlc its a strat type body with two humbuckers and a neck similar to a kramer or jackson .its in need of a full refurb but it plays and sounds ok I suspect it may be from the late 70s early 80s law suit era in which case its worth more than the pittance I paid for it.I havent checked for serial numbers inside yet.I'll post a pic later.But mean while if any one has any info I'd be greatful.
