Greetings from beautiful downtown Burnley.......

[Rusty Spanner]

A quick hello from a very bad guitarist and recently returned bassist. 

 

Back in the day I was a huge fan of Keith Bailey of Here and Now, who inspired me to pick up a 4 string.

Working at May's Pawn Shop in Collyhurst, Manchester I ended up with a lovely Westone Spectrum DX from the music department next door. 

Needing an amp I ended up with a Laney Linebacker from A1 and enjoyed both until I had to sell up to pay the rent. 

 

53 now, and following the advice of a good friend, I've ended up here (Hiya Muzz)!

 

After trying out everything available locally I've recently bought a Cort B4 Element and a Trace Elliot Elf combo. My word, things have moved on. 

The Cort is delightful and the Elf smaller than my guitar amp. Both sound superb. 

 

This seems like a very friendly place and I look forward to asking endless annoying questions. 🙂

 

Love to all,

Pete.

Hi Pete, welcome to the site. I have a vague memory of seeing Here and Now in the Marquee many, many years ago.
