Keep Your Hands To Yourself - Georgia Satellites

I lived in London and was exactly the right age to be the target demographic for punk. I hated it with a vengeance at the time, but I’ve come round to some of it over the years.

Queen of the Highway - The Doors

I think just for ease of repair/replacement/adjustment/customisation bolt ons for me. Yes, upper fret access can be hindered, but many systems seem to have overcome that. From an aesthetic POV, neck through.

Which, given how Malcom McClaren used particular, promotional tactics, makes one wonder if it has all been on purpose and in cahoots.

Mississippi Queen - Mountain

Yes, I think so. I pretty much put all my bases through my Sadowsky preamp pedal and this adds some of that active boost you get from a normal ‘Ray but without the brittleness I have experienced on a couple of the 3 band models. Although I’m not particularly a slap player, it does that well enough for my needs, whilst sitting/cutting in/through the mix for finger style, just like a normal ‘Ray. Having the series/single/parallel option just adds to the versatility. It’s all about that pickup placement IMO, and the SS pickup is in the same relative place as the 34” scale.

I’ll Follow You Into The Dark - Death Cab For Cutie

Darkness on the Edge of Town - Bruce S.

I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles) - The Proclaimers

Should've got somebody with a voice to sing it then, not (insert derogatory description of your own choosing here). Anyway the gig wasn't for George, why did he get a favourite?* *Irritable, rhetorical question, no answers required.

Tiny Dancer - EJ

Beauty Secrets - BeBop Deluxe

Pretty Vacant - The Pistols

Holy Diver - Dio

A clip on the rear of the instrument to house said Allen key is also an option. I’m pretty sure some company did this for their Floyd Rose equipped guitars on the rear of their headstocks (obviously not an option here).

Been Caught Stealing - Jane’s Addiction

Hey Bartender - Blues Brothers

Unless there’s another Ryde that I’m unaware of, it may be a misspelling of course.

And a spellchecker. WTF is a wrisk? ‘Tis neither wrist or whisk. However, maybe they use a silent W on the IOW and I have judged too harshly. 🤷🏻

30 Dace In The Hole - Humble Pie

Dream On - Aerosmith

Worth looking at the ad for the description alone. 😳

The tuners on my ‘Ray SS had quite a bit of slop in them, held tune OK but slack to be annoying when tuning. Fitted some Hipshots, all good, as you’d expect. I remember the preamp in my original run, ‘Ray34 being a bit brittle and it was a bit weighty too IIRC.
