I like Squire .
Never had a problem wirth any of them.
would reccomend one highly.

fender front man amp is a good choice also.
I have the 15 r with the reverb knob but dont know if the reverb was worth the extra expense
Peace out

back when I first started playing (before my 20 +year hiatus)
I idolised Angus Young and Toni Iomi and later Jerry Garcia.
the one thing in common ?
the Gibson SG.
I hated the guitar..later I loved to hate it.these days I have played with a few at the music store and I am starting to love them.
think I will get the Epiphone Les Paul re issue ( as SG`s where called in the early days)
the one with 3 humbuckers.
the Strat will allways be my main guitar but strange how things go.
Peace Out

thanks Guys
I put it down to mid life crisis.
First a Hohnor Blues harmonica just appeared at my house one day and
at 41 years old I thought long and hard about my life and the only true regret I had was not keeping up with .
my Guitar playing and music in general.
So I learned a few songs on the harp and bought myself a Soprano Ukulele (cheap but fun..will get a better one now)
then I just got myself an accoustic guitar.
I have also found a love for mandolin and banjo..so they are next on the list.
I find playing very thereputic and spiritual and will never put down the instruments again.
Life begins at 40
have a great day guys
