Hi all fellow guitarists! Just took delivery of a Ibanez EX Series guitar, with twin humbuckers and a center single coil pick-up. It has a lovely maple neck which is so damned fast, its great. I don't have an amp yet but in about a week or two I'll be getting a Vox Pathfinder 15w one hopefully.

Anyway heres a pic!

Among others, a Fender Telecaster.

Spastik:
Don't leave your guitar lying down like that, the weight of the head pulling down on the end of the neck can warp it.

He has many highly customized guitars of various make - Telecasters, Ibanez, a few Gibsons, etc. I saw him play last Thursday! It was wicked.

Any contributers? People who contribute $100 or more will get a free demo disk of the keyboard once the purchase is made. :D

Yes every colour, but white. Women are allergic to white sox.

Awesome. That's a nice piece of flamed maple ya got there!

Glad to see you finally got an electric... but a few things.

1) MAKE THAT STRAP LOWER! Not so low that it's scraping your knees, but at least waist-height!
2) Ignore hoot_hoot- your guitar's neck will not warp if you leave it lying down. I've left mine like that since I started playing and they're all fine.
3) Congrats on finally getting it. I'm very happy for you, and hopefully the amp should follow... and by the way, when you come over, that Black Beauty has your name on it, I'm bored of it.

He's trying to be more like Tom Morello :)


Also, you might want to put the strat behind your shoulder and under your arm on your right side. Don't want to be hurting your neck :)

Ok someone unfortuneately got the Vox amp I was getting :(

So instead i'm considering a Behringer AC108 Vintager. Any opinions on it?
