I'm Bored

I had no choice in buying it. There is a little-known law in Scotland called the ‘Musician Purchasing Act'. Subsection 2(ii)a states: ‘If I see a guitar that obviously talks to me, I am duty bound to buy it.’ Just did my duty.

I thought the law said; " playing to me." But I guess you know better

There is a similar one in England related to large format cameras and lenses.

At least with those camera's if all else fails, you could use them as garden sheds, or even put wheels on and you'd have a caravan
Now a guitar, I suppose it would make a paddle, but then you'd have to find a canoe to have fun

This is why I write a camera blog. When photo taking takes a back seat, camera geekery takes over and vice versa ... And since they are part of the same hobby they keep me ticking. Even the writing helps I find

Good luck Rob, I'm sure you will get back your mojo ... And if you don't, dibs on the hexar yeah?

 

[Rob MacKillop]

It's yours, Hamish, for £500!

 

[Hamish Gill]

Haha now there's a deal I can refuse

 

[Pete Askew]

He's a chancer that one! I'd watch out for him!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

It's the market, boys, the market...I'd love to give you it for free, but I have a wife and twelve kids to support, plus the mistresses. You're men of the world, you know what it's like. I ask you! I'm almost giving it away at £500!

 

[Hamish Gill]

I'll give ya a fackin' tun, take it or fackin' leave it!?

 

[Hamish Gill]

Slaaaaaaaaaaag!

Video of the junk-shop guitar. It's hard to play!

 

[Ivar Dahl-Larsen]

After the jabbing, I leaned back, closed my eyes, enjoyed and got religious Very good Rob. I am delighted and it sounds real nice. Was no junk as far as I can tell. It looks good too, never mind the player

Christmas blues

There you go Rob...a vid with some Christmas Blues....!

That'll cheer us all up...

PS. Just missed out on a Loar Archtop on Fleabay...:-(

 

[Pete Askew]

Lovely stuff Rob. I enjoyed that, especially the second piece. Have you tidied up?!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Ivar - no wonder you got religious. God loves me and works through me. One day my critics will crucify me...

Dougie - the Loar's are not bad guitars, but they do have quality-control issues. You have to do some work on them, usually.

Pete - yes! Glad you noticed ;-) Trying to make the place nice for the girls.

 

[Douglas McMann]

So are we getting a "Christmas Blues" vid Rob...go on, you know you want to...and can you have the tuning & tablature appended to it too, for us learners...

 

[Rob MacKillop]

You never know...
