Dave/Anyone

Guitar is NICE.

Decided I might try and buy one - does anyone know amy dealers in the UK who may still have a VOS one?

Thanks!

That's an outrageous first post. Straight off the bat and you already want to buy very expensive guitars. This place is bad for your bank balance as it makes you want to buy more expensive stuff. I really don't know where you would go from here  :o

And welcome to the forum  :D

I think I hate being indecisive.

They still have the relic'd one for sale in Guitar Village. I don't think that will be sold any time soon (unless I win millions on the lottery).

You and me both mate.  I'd love it, but at £14k it's crazy.

You selling the Fano mate?  Want to swap a car/wife/house/baby for it?  I'd even learn how to play the bloody instrument for that one.
Advice worth what you just paid for it.

Thinking about it, but I've just been playing it and now I want to keep it....

I do love the look of the fano. Maybe I didn't play it for long enough to appreciate it. Aesthetically it's right up my street.

Good job you played it before somebody gave you the money for it!

Did wonder why you would want to get rid of that one.
It's a great guitar from what I remember.
Plus it's blue

Excuse me for being VERY late on this one (been very busy over the past few weeks) but that is a stunning guitar, Dave!! Very, very nice. A bit pricey but I'm sure that it is worth every penny! :D

BKP's own: Irish Tours, Mule(b), Black Dog(b)
BKP's had: Riff Raffs, Nailbombs

A slightly old thread I know, but I'm been having trouble with YouTube and I've just done a quick test upload of me mucking about with Francine though my JTM/100.  Very similar to the last one I uploaded, but I used my 45/100 half stack instead.  You can hear the woodiness of the guitar better in this one, plus you can see it - albeit in the shadows  :lol:

Usual sloppy playing from me etc:

Nice stuff Dave. Love that JTM. You've got me thinking that I want one although I couldn't afford it without the deluxe going! Cheers  :?
