I picked up a 11 year old Squier P last year for a good price. Once I set it up and played it, I was really surprised at the quality. I replaced the white pickguard with a tort one and put in a SD SPB1 and chrome covers with tugbar and it looks like an old 60,s one from a distance!

Maybe MDP might buy it, and convert it!

[quote name='bluesparky' timestamp='1366359491' post='2051347'] How does the rock back thing work? Are they the original tracks or high quality covers (I've never played rock band / guitar hero). [/quote] Yea, all original. IIRC, they had some trouble with the beatles rock band, as the bass and drums were on the same track and were digitally seperated.

The best ones are the mock tweed ones, they are top quality!

I recently bought a fender bass combo fron DV so I dont know why they stopped selling guitars!

About 6 -8 months. My first band did a lot of Jam covers including The bitterest pill and funeral pyre with the Beatles taxman thrown in! On a Westone thunder 1 from my mates mums littlewoods catalogue at 20ppw

What are you trying to sell??

Foo fighters - Greatest hits Tom Petty - Greatest hits Lenny Kravitz Greatest hits I,m a terrible compilation album junkie

Don Henley - In A new york minute. Pino again I believe.

The Indonesian Squiers are not too bad. The current Vintage Modified range are well respected on here.

[quote name='andydye' timestamp='1365459675' post='2040013'] You mean the markbass one? [/quote] No I think its a generic one that sits on the top of a combo and the neck rests in it. The body rests on the floor.

I remember reading about a stand you could rest your guitar on, which attached to your amp. Can anyone tell me what they are called??

John Mc Vies' job in Fleetwood Mac will suit me.

[quote name='JapanAxe' timestamp='1365106428' post='2035525'] As I understand it, it is a legal requirement for mains-powered portable kit (e.g. bass amps!) to come with a UK mains lead. (There is an exemtion for 'bathroom appliances like shavers and toothbrushes). [/quote] Obviously its not a well known legal requirement then! Still, DV247 had a replacement lead at my front door at 8.30 the following morning so top marks to them.

I bought a Swift Stratocaster copy a few years ago. The frets were so sharp and poorly installed they cut my hands. It was totally unplayable. I sold it on ebay for parts and made more than I bought it for!!

You will save a few quid too, buying online.

I received mine yesterday, and apart from getting the wrong AC plug, (the right one arrived this morning), It sounds great. I will gig on Saturday and see how it sounds in a band situation.

I dont think I,ll bother, I didnt really enjoy the last one.
