Default Guitars ... rock my boat!

My Gordon Smith flametop 'Les Paul' (dating back to 1993 ish) and a genuine Fender Stratocaster rock my boat.

First on the plane over here and most coveted since ... apart from family, etc, etc

Excuse the flowery duvet, it wasn't mine

I might well lob a riff or two together and post it for ritual humilation

I'm going to post some loops and stuff for Timber's jukebox thing so adding some of my guitar can bring the quality down quite nicely

Nice

My dad plays guitar he had a Fender and also had an Ibanez (not sure model) that he used to play.

He never learnt to read music but could listen to a piece of music and be able to pick up the guitar and play it note perfect after 2 or 3 attempts.

Many a night spent in the lounge singing Bob Dylan, The Eagles, etc.... I still love Albatross one of my all time favs...

Nice skill to have, I struggle through trial and error mostly, I used to read a bit of music score but now I just bash away on the keyboards like a chimpanzee ... enjoyable though

Albatross, oh yes, featuring one of my favourite guitarists, Peter Green

(edit) Ah yes, His Bobness, just seen the 'No Direction Home' documentary ... ace.
