Hi since I retired two years ago to keep from vegetating and to challenge myself I took up learning Guitar. I'm fairly catholic in my taste with a leaning towards the blues. I have a Fender American Strat, and now want to present myself for Christmas with an acoustic electric, preferably slim line. Suggestions and recommendations please boys.
Before you ask I'm a crap player but love it.
Pete,
Have a look at the LAG series of guitars.
The T200ACE is a classy looking box with very nice tonewoods and luthier work for the price. It is about 100mm deep and the electronics are also very simple.
Mark and James, I ended up buying an Aussie made mainly because they sound great and I can get local back up. Thanks for your input much appreciated. The New Australian EA80C | Maton Guitars Australia
Pete,
A marvellous choice of guitar if I may say so. An heirloom piece.
I didn't realise how serious that you were taking your hobby.
AND it's Australian !
Enjoy it mate.
Here's one for you guys in bands; We're covering the following song, which fades at the end. How would you end it for a live situation. We came up with a solution that worked for us, and I will reveal it if anyone replies with their own ideas.
