Good work, I picked up an old Marshall 4x12 for about the same price ... added some wheels, but found it was too big for me - sold it a couple of years later for about $300 ...
Hope you can see the image ...
Cheers

Richard. It is a beautiful guitar but the post is a prelude to spam, I think. I may be wrong? You may want to buy a fire squirty thing from Spain, I don't know. But be assured, if and when they return to add spam they'll be gone!
Hope you're enjoying that beauty?
I thought it might be, but was giving them the benefit of doubt ... Yes, the guitar is my 'go to' when I'm in the study (which was previously a red Ibanez Artcore) - keep thinking I have to do a "blues by candlelight" like Beamer(?) did ...

Don't put yourself down Richard, you did a great job and I'm chufft that a great musician like yourself took the time to expand and improve on one of my humble offerings.
Thanks for the kind words.
Cheers ... I meant you had better phrasing in the verses, mine was also a bit under rehearsed ..

Re: Jenny (12 replies, posted in Poems)
It touched me deeply - my Mum passed away from Cancer about 15 years ago, it was a happy/sad time as I'd just started dating my (now) wife, and just recently I was contacted by our old neighbour (from when I was about between 5 and 12) asking after my Mum, and I had to tell her Mum had passed. Kinda touched a raw nerve ...

fine job there richard. the song and the summery background remind me of when we were in Perth (at this time of year) a few years back. thanks for posting the video
Thanks - it was actually (ironically) very cool and windy on the day I recorded it- whereas the day before was hot and summery ... but we are fortunate to get about 9 months of summer here

Re: Learning Piano (4 replies, posted in Other string instruments)
I taught myself guitar, and I'd consider it a long slog to become mediocre; I've had lessons for my son on keyboards and he's become quite good in a short period of time ... if I were to do it again, or recommend, I'd go for the lessons ...
And welcome (or welcome back, whichever is appropriate) ...

Ha! That's funny, because as I read it - I was singing it in my head
that's good, i'd love to hear what you made of it?
Here you go Phill, this is kinda how it went in my head (sorry for the stuff ups, I didn't practice it a lot ... )
