Yep, I'd second that ...

Can't help with experience, but they have a wiki page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tagima

I find that playing electric and playing acoustic is almost like two different instruments; acoustic is more about the woods and the tones you can achieve from that - with electric the focus is primarily on the pickups .. with an electric, expect to pay more for adding an amp and external effects - in fact, I'd probably spend half of my budget on those  ... so whatever your budget is, half it and look at guitars in that price range.

As with acoustic, it really is a case of trying out a number of guitars and seeing what 'feels' best. Sometimes looking at the brand is a hinderance unless you intend to sell it later down the track (where better know brands tend to keep their value better than unknown/lesser known brands). But you know, I still have my first decent electric I bought for $au200 a long time ago - it's not a known brand, but the neck feels really good, it doesn't get much of a play these days, but when I pull it out, it feels good (still, after all these years!!)

TLDR: budget for an amp and effects, buy what feel right, not the name on the headstock ...

Thanks - I'm still trying to convince her to do "Hallelujah" ... but I can't pick with my sore thumb

The Christmas spiders are actually about 5mm across (the picture is hugely magnified) - I'd be more scared of the Christmas Island crabs ... there's an estimated 45 million this year ...

It was hard to see the difference in quality between the two speakers in the video, but the end result sounded pretty good ...  (in the second video) !!!

Nice!! We get the WA Christmas tree, Nuytsia floribunda - which looks like this:

And our little Christmas spider, I haven't seen one yet this year (but we had a long, wet, winter):

And here is an entertaining piece written by an American scientist, which explains the situation here quite well: http://aussieshed.blogspot.com.au/2011/ … -year.html

Enjoy!!

Cool - that opening reminded me so much of the Triffids song "Bright lights, big city": https://soundcloud.com/the-triffids/bri … s-big-city

Nice work!!!

Well, now we know why your videos are so good - you come from the "City of cool"!!!

Thanks - that's a good video!!

I'm going to cheat (kinda) and show this video of Perth an the surrounds - it was made by a guy I used to work with, and we both had an interest in photography, he's gone on to become quite well respected, and has some of his photography in the local newspaper (frequently) and features on the Tourism WA website:

He was testing out his (newish) drone at the time ...
