Hi Guys, not been on for ages I hope everyone is good. Went to the Northern Guitar Show at Haydock yesterday and an 18W TMB clone followed me home. It's a turret board build put together by Bluebird amps and I must say I'm pretty chuffed with it to say the least. Currently got it hooked up to a...

I've recently bought a Blackstar HT 40 Club combo with matching 1x12 cab. Liking it a lot. Bigger sound and more versatile than the DSL401, but less focused somehow. Anyway, well chuffed with my purchase just wondered if anyone else has tried Blackstar....

Jim Marshall is 84 today (July 29th). Cheers! :salude :wail

I just saw an advert for the Pocket POD.. Anyone here tried one yet? They look pretty cool to me, could be tempted..

Hi, don't know if these links have been posted before or indeed if they're genuine bursts :ganz I thought I'd bring it to the attention of those that may have an interest...

I took the pickguard off 'cause it's cracked. So thought I'd try and get a few naked shots of the top of my 02 std.... Just trying to show how it changes in the light and give an impressoin of the carve at the same time. Cheers!

...I was watching TOTP2 on Saturday and they showed some TOTP (Top of the Pops) footage from 1975, the guitarist in 'Kenny' was playing a goldtop deluxe, that looked to have thick binding in the cutaway. I thought that thick binding was introduced later. Any thoughts?? Cheers! Edit - Sorry...

...to my 02 std. It's a bit of a long story.. When I first got the guitar four years ago, I thought it'd be nice to have speed knobs. Just happened to have a set in the drawer. So I pull off all the knobs and try to replace the bridge tone knob first. Ah I thought, this is a bit tight and...

...just wishing all USA based LPF members and their families all the best. Hope you enjoy your July 4th celebrations..:jim Cheers!

.... this may be old news, but I just saw it yesterday in Guitarist magazine. Apparently Gary Moore has sold Peter Green's burst to the head of Maverick International for an undisclosed high seven-figure number. Well I suppose the world didn't stop turning, but I for one found it a bit of a...

I hadn't taken a good look in the control cavity on my 02 Std since I bought it, that is until last week-end. I can't post a picture just at the moment, but the standard of wiring seems rather poor quality to me. The solder joints are very 'blobby' and untidy. Q. Is this typical for factory...

My bandmate's cousin sat in on our band practice last night and brought along his 1959SLP re-issue. This was stood on top of and plugged into a pair of original 'vertical' 2x12 Marshall cabs that stand side by side (I've not seen these before). He plays a LP Classic with (I think he said) Duncan...

Hope y'all have a nice 4th July.. Congrats, another year of freedom from the British tax system :yay Wish I could say the same for those of us left in the old country :)

Noticed this on the bay... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=33040&item=7321369881&rd=1 2002 but, speed knobs, Standard TRC, Grovers, thick cutaway binding. All pre-02 attributes Nicely flamed AA top in Lightburst, BB's and LP5 in bridge pup cavity, plastic jack plate...

In the last two weeks my band mate has got his hands on a Mesa Boogie Lonestar and a Bad Cat Hot Cat 50..... I've heard the Mesa, (excellent and different to other Mesa's I've heard), but not the Bad Cat I just hope he doesn't plug a Gibson Les Paul into either of them (he uses a...
