New Strat Day!

[Jp.]

Just need a new neck for mine now as I decided 7.25" radius is just too hard and annoying to play  Just cant decide whether to get rosewood or maple board for mine!

haha Gotchya

Hope I didnt have anything to do with that.......

Nice strat Phill Congratulations and  Belated Happy Birthday from down under.

[Philly Q]

Thanks for the comments guys!  :D

It's turned into a bit of a guitar weekend, as I've just collected my Orville LP, which has had some loose inlays very nicely repaired by Feline Guitars.

I think my next few guitar transactions may need to be sales, not purchases...

Philly that is one nice guitar, kinda like mine that I got (looks wise). & an Orville as well! Lucky git

To paraphrase Russell Brand you shouldn't joke about someone with an addiction.  

It's great having lots of guitars, but I really should sell at least 10 of 'em and get the kitchen and bathroom re-fitted.  Am I actually going to do that?  Unlikely...

Have you considered selling the kitchen and bathroom to purchase some more guitars ?

Actually have you considered renting thise rooms to some Eastern Europeans. The guy next door rented his 3 bedroom house to 3 guys, and threw them out when he found 17 of them living there.

So exactly hoy many guitars do you have, and this time include the dissassembled ones (they still count you know)

Errr.... 26.  :oops:  Including the 3 basses.

Should be scope to sell a few there, but it seems so easy to come up with "I need that one because..." excuses.  When in fact I don't need any...

The Eastern European rental option is definitely worth considering, especially as my area is a kind of Little Poland.  And I did have a neighbour offer to buy my garden to use as a "storage area" - what the hell do you store in a garden (maybe some migrant workers in a big tent)?

26?! I feel guilty having 3 electrics and wanting another one :lol: Got any spare strat necks by any chance? :P

[Philly Q]

Actually, I do have a Warmoth one-piece maple Strat neck which I've never used.  It's cut for a Floyd Rose nut though.

Don't forget I'm 20+ years older than you!  Give it time, young man...

shitee that means I'm dead  

 :lol:

Very nice Phil :) I think I'm starting to prefer the sound of singlecoils now - you need to play cleaner, but I love the sounds you get from em! Got some BG Pickups v60s (blasphemy? :P) on the way for mine, decided my current pickups arent doing it for me so hopefully these should be good.

Finally, someone worse than me!

great advice!

holy cr@p.  :lol:

[Kilby]

Philly, even I fear that you may have been overdoing the purchasing

Finally, someone worse than me!

*passes torch of indecisiveness*

I doubt that you would decide to do such a rash thing

Bit late on this - don't know why I didn't see the thread!  Happy belated birthday Phil, and happy new guitar.  Looks pretty cool  :)

I've just had to count mine as I never know where I'm up to  :oops:

I'm currently on 19, with my two 20th Anniversary Ibanez RGs arriving any day.  Unlike you Phil, I've actually sold a couple recently  ;)

[Philly Q]

Unlike you Phil, I've actually sold a couple recently  ;)

True.  I am planning to sell a few - my Firebird Studio, maybe my Double Fat Strat, my Fernandes bass.  And I have loads of spares and bits & pieces to get shot of.  

It's just a case of getting off my arse and doing the eBay ads.  Never do today what you can put off until tomorrow.

What do you find is the best way to sell, Dave?

[Twinfan]

We have a noticeboard at work which is where I've sold most of my stuff.  I sold my old Marshall 2x12 on here and the odd thing on eBay.  Depends where the buyers market is, which currently sees to be eBay.  Prices are realy low at the minute though, so I'd hols on a few months until the summer slump is over.

The Firebird Studio - is it a Gibson?  I might be interested....
