It’s reclaimed Les, it going back to nature!Beautiful guitar!
Why’d you decide to use it as a lawn decoration?
Wow that literally looks like part of the garden! We got guitars sprouting out of the ground now.
Tonight is a village hall charity gig, but we will be fed. Looking fwd to the CE debut.
What’s on the set list?
Strap pins: These are massive. None of my locking straps will fit (Planet Waves or Lock-It) and conventional straps will only go on if I unscrew the strap pins first, but then the guitar wont fit in the gig bag properly. For now I have screwed on a conventional strap and will use a hard case tonight.
Yeah, the oversized strap "pins" (Fender bass string tees) can be a battle on new straps, but a little cut on the strap slit with a knife, and some use, will get it on without too much grunt, while still being on nice and solid.After a while your straps get used to the punishment and go on a little easier. You could slightly enlarge the slit with an exacto knife and it will then fit a little easier.
Have a great gig, enjoy your meal!
What’s on the set list?
Yeah there’s something I don’t know quite what, about them too!I'm so tempted by the reclaimed guitars. They just have the je ne sais quoi.
