Ron S Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Hi all! I'm an acoustic guitar player. Been playing for 45 years or so... Lately interests have been Big Bands n Ballads, though I've played folkie and Texas 'sock' guitar for fiddle backup as well. Figured I needed to learn some rock styles and no better way to learn a style than to get an electric guitar. Of course one has to acquire an amplifier so what better way than to build my own? I got a CeriaTone 100w 183 ODS kit and put it together. Sounds great too. Now I need to learn how to rock n roll! Using an old 'Coffee can' EV SRO12 speaker (built the box it's in) and the 183. Dang! It's loud! Guitar's: 1969 Gibson L6-S, and 1963 Epiphone Casino E230TD, and a Martin D18. I like the 230 because it feels more like an acoustic. I'm used to 'squeezing' chords on acoustic and I get the sense that a lighter touch is required on electric. I hope to learn all I can about 'lectric' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdgm Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 Hi Ron My 1st Gibson was an L6-S in dark cherry. They came out about 1972 I think. Wish I still had it. Good luck, best wishes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
