Oops, I did it again...

Indeed!  I've not seen a piece of mahogany with curls/swirls before but I really like this one.  It sounds better the more you dig in too?  Not to be treated with kid gloves.  It's a very clear and bright guitar, which I think will work really well through a cranked amp.

I picked up my Epi SG as a comparison and it now sounds all dull and dark.  Arse.  I'm really going to enjoy rehearsing with the Epi tonight aren't I?  Not.....


Err - rehearse with the Mira!!!

It's true, he is the Noah of Guitars!  :lol:   But I've got two of most things as well, I have to admit.

And I am a Gemini - does that mean I'm supposed to have a split personality???

Dunno, but at least one of them must be of the smart and nice kind.  8)

I'll take that as a compliment, but I guess the other one's dumb and nasty!  :wink:

Ha I never thought I would find horoscope stuff on this forum.

It sorta does. You can also think very quickly and have dexterous fingers.

Once you get into it ( not the cr@ppy mystic meg stuff * hisses*) it's a nice eye opener.

It's rather interesting stuff and you can learn stuff about yourself you never knew.

Oh the drama - Leo.

Hmm, I guess I can think above first gear.  And I do have pretty dexterous fingers (though you'd never guess it from my guitar playing....)

But don't worry, I don't believe in any of that superstitious mumbo jumbo either.

Cheers Dave.  It's really hard to photograph, as is the colour.  It's a bit like amber that gets more orange with more light.

The figuring is superb, really different.  I'm surprised by how bright sounding it is - REALLY resonant wood with massive sustain.

I'm a PRS convert.  It blows socks off what Gibson sell for £1000-ish.
