Title: Finally got some pics - Guitars (pic heavy)
Post by: Brow on November 02, 2008, 06:38:18 PM
Hey guys.

I was bored today so I decided to drag out my guitars and take a few photos as all my others are out of date (some by a few years  :lol:) and I've been meaning to do it for a while now so thought I'd post them here too.

Sorry about the quality of the photos, mine always turn out rubbish!

regret selling the ash strat a bit now, it looks great in that pic and all it probably needed was a proper setup for it to play nicely :oops:

Thanks for your replies guys :)

I've never been too much of a fan of the colour of the Gould to be honest. I just wanted a cheapie guitar to take on holiday etc but I ended up liking how it played so Jonathan made me a pickguard for it and I upgraded the pickup for a Piledriver. It's actually got quite a bit of power behind it when you dig in a bit!

The reason for the pics being sideways is because if I took the photos the right way up, the camera compressed the height of the photos and everything looked odd, so I decided to leave them sideways on

8) Amazing bunch!

How does the V sounds?
The V sounds good, quite bright but full at the same time. When I got the V I wanted something between Michael Schenker (sp?) and Randy Rhoads, so the Riff Raff was Tims idea :)

regret selling the ash strat a bit now, it looks great in that pic and all it probably needed was a proper setup for it to play nicely :oops:
When I 1st bolted it all together it played ok but after it had a full fret dress is when it really became a great player. It has a real nice rawness to it with a great crunch tone.

I didn't realise you were so Stratted up!

That's quite a recent thing really. I was always a LP player until I tried my ex bandmates suped up Strat about 4 years ago and really liked it. The seed was planted! :D

Nice collection of guits mate!
The easiest way to get better photos is to ditch the flash - take the pictures in a place with plenty of natural sunlight. Unhelpfully, guitars very narrow, tall things, which makes for a lot of empty space on either side of the picture. If you crop out some of that empty space, you should see your pics looking much better straight away.  PDT_003

Charvel is nice. I like the Ibanez, although i'm personally an RG man... :)

The rest are rubbish.


:D Nah, quality stuff man, all great looking guitars. Not a bad one there. And I agree with Nolly, perhaps it would have been better without the flash, as you can't really see the headstock on the Strat guitars though. Loving the PRS too.


Good stuff :)


Ben.

Hey guys.

Thanks for your posts :)

What else do you want to see?

Nolly: Thanks for the tips on the photos. I'll definitely keep your tips in mind for next time I take photos :) I normally would've taken them outside, but it was chucking it down all yesterday which is 1 reason I did the photos due to boredom of being stuck inside!  :lol: :D

Couldn't see them at work... but now I can - :D

Very nice looking set of geetars - you're missing an SG and an Explorer (and possibly a Dano :lol:), but otherwise...

Actually, I really like the look of that V, and I'm not one for Vs...

And your pics are better than mine!

I don't really suit Explorers tbh with ya. I'm too short and fat, they just look wrong! lol

I had a Dean ML a fair few years ago and that was the same, wrong, just wrong!  :lol:

That made me realise... I've never actually tried an Explorer.  I think it would make me look like Pete Willis.

That's not so bad, I can think of worse people to look like.

I'd look like the Fat Controller off Thomas The Tank Engine if I had 1!  :lol:
