hehe

I'm Scot by descent, McBain->Beane.  However, my wife's parents (McCallum) emmigrated from Scotland, so it fit right for our ceremony.



As for the amp & neighbors:  I stopped many hacks from playing while at college just by turning it up to '7', cranking out whatever song they were trying to learn while having their amps turned to full and then enjoying the silence of them putting their gear away.  I have been asked by the police to turn my radio off before.  I said thanks for the compliment and that I would happily oblige.

Ahhh yes a man with my kind of attitude to music excellent!!

Nice Kilt Bob, I know someone who recently wore one of those to get married.

Me .

I have 2 Electric Guitars,  Fender Strat and a Shaftsbury Les Paul (1952) with a replica painting of the art work from Fools Gold on the he front (Stone Roses, Dolphin Picture).

4 acoustic guitar. A 1971 Yamaha 6 string which isby baby and sounds delightful, easiest guitar to play in the world. An Eros 12 string, real heavyweight but with the action so low you it is a doddly to play. An Eros 6 string, another heavyweight but sound great.

Finally a Hofner 3/4 nylon strung acoustic from 1920. Bit old and battered but it sounds nice.

I also have a couple of harps (moothies for you tramps out there).

Very nice gear Albert.  Congrats on the wedding too!

My gear list:

Electrics
Les Paul - Black Standard - 1992
ESP KH-502 - Kirk Hammett Limited Ed (skull & crossbones on the 12th fret)
Ibanez Roadstar II - currently stripped to the wood and refinishing.  Will be re-assembled with 2 Seymour Duncan humbuckers and a split coil humbucker. Should yield 9 different sounds when completed: Bridge - Middle 1 - Middle 2- Neck pickups: B/B+M1/B+M2/M1/M2/N+M1/N+M2/N/B+N

Acoustics
Epiphone PR-5 Acoustic Electric (cutaway body)
Seagull G12 - 12 string acoustic
Kay Archtop w/F-holes circa late50/early60's - restored (plays beautifully)
Yamaha - strings are way high, use it for slide

Stratolite nylon string.  Bang around guitar, bought at yard sale and the strings cost more than it did.   :devil:

Finally got them out of storage and into the new house.  :devil:

[Sn00ks]

I play the Digeridoo, if that helps?  :whistle:

[Moment]

digging up an old thread?

[Whitey]

Bougth it in the eighties (bright Orange :blush: ) .

Bass Guitar (and regular guitars, but mainly powerchords, badly, on those )

Got an Ibanez Roadster whose electronics is a bit old and needs redoing sometime. Active circuitry is slightly bust due to old age, but the passive bits fine, which is what I use anyway.

Speaker's a 15" Fane custom (150Wrms continuous) speaker in a home-made cab that could probably use a bit more padding.

100Wrms mosfet poweramp sitting semi-completed, still needs a preamp section.

I also have a rusting clarinet on which I once achieve Grade7 level, but then it's been virtually unused for 5 or 6 years.

I play a Grand Piano, suckers...

Thats how I felt about mine.  4 years now it's been in pieces...   :blink:

I've rewired and replaced the jack socket a few times, and rewired some of the electronics. Passive circuitry works fine (active never sounded that much better/different anyway) Would be nice to fix the active stuff and maybe sort out the pickups etc one day. It wouldn't take me too long I think, as the band would be a bit annoyed if I left it in bits like my amp (6 years that has been waiting to be completely finished... :blush: )

My memory is too long, I remembered this thread existed.

Goofing around last week with a picture assignment on Flickr and ended up doing this as well.
