THat's right, @TV1. Never crossed my mind that I could have had a wonderful LP Custom the same age as me. Not bitter...

But not a 1973 LP custom in Tobacco Sunburst for £250. At least you soon got over that near-miss @rashdown_online and haven't been thinking it about, in all the detail, ever since ... 🤣 ...

I can donate these unopened Iron Gear pickups. Parchment covers so may not work but may be able to source new covers to match the guitar. If those pickups are chosen then @boo can just paint them dam...

Tomorrow came, and they'd sold it 1hr before I got there. @rashdown_online ahhhhhhhhhh, what a fookin‘ kick in the nuts!!!

Well I was hoping to play this out a bit for a little fun but mr @boo just had to butt in and spoil it, thanks jerky! 😆😘 So, I'm still confused. If you're American, why do you type wi...

@tv101 Well I was hoping to play this out a bit for a little fun but mr @boo just had to butt in and spoil it, thanks jerky! 😆😘

So how come your English is so good then @mattbeels? @tv101 It’s not that good, he is American 🤣 Apologies to any Americans here, this is a light hearted joke. Matt can take a joke. (I think...

Apologies to any Americans here, this is a light hearted joke. Matt can take a joke. (I think ) Maybe *he* can @Boo - but I'm not so sure about the Americans ...

So how come your English is so good then @mattbeels? I've been over to Germanyland a few times, and whilst most people seem to speak English, it's nowhere near your level of familiarity with the langu...

@tv101 Thanks dude! Nope, never lived in the UK. Never even visited although I did fly through Heathrow a few times 😉...

I reside in “GermanyLand”, ahem. Serious question @mattbeels - your English is *very* good, including the use of more "casual" phrases. Have you spent time living over here?

@rashdown_online I like the title of this thread by the way. 😂 “I don’t like to talk about it”

I remember a time (when all this were fields) and my dad agreed to buy me my first guitar. It was in Durham, and the local music shop has a selection of used guitars that I was looking at. I was very ...

I can donate these unopened Iron Gear pickups. @deej That’s very generous of you, we’ll throw them into the hat. The “debates” we will all have about what should be used where and why is going to be ...

a legit Gibson SG I've never got on with the SGs. The controls all feel too close together. Either that, or my fingers are too fat. I've only got one proper Gibson (original run Nighthawk from the ...

Posted by: @ They are, indeed. @boo: THere's another option which is EvilSheep Pickups. Hand made in "Gods Country" and really well priced. I had a set of "Sheep Experience" pickups in a crappy (bef...

I'm probably a bit late to this, but solder the resistors first then Caps and diodes. It's easier in that order. Cheers @rashdown_online - I was thinking along the same lines, just so that I can get ...

Nice one. I'm probably a bit late to this, but solder the resistors first then Caps and diodes. It's easier in that order. I've got a Big Muff to mess around with (stop sniggering at the back!!!) that...

Or I could take them to the Mother Ship when I pick up my guitar (not TV's guitar - mine ) You're getting a guitar TOO @rashdown_online? To be fair, I admire your patience. I'd have driven up there...

Iron Gears are good pickups. Not just "good for the money", but good, period. I used them in 2 of my Bailey builds, and various of my own builds (including the last one I did).
