pippy Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 I don't think I've ever posted snaps of my LPs before...... Ah, well. It's probably been a while so here goes again; In date order we have 'Treacle'. 1991 '1960 Classic'. P-up covers fitted. 'Jam'. 1993 Historic Division 1959 re-issue. First year of production, No. 131. 'Honey'. 1995 '1960 Classic'. Seymour Duncan 'Antiquities' fitted. 'Marmalade'. 1995 Historic Division 1960 re-issue. I must cut'n'paste this from another part of the forum; ...I've played Pippy's R0. The second best LP I've played ;) ... I'm not going to get into a petty argument over your totally biased and blinkered (and mistaken) viewpoint, Farns. It should be apparent that she's the greatest guitar ever made ever by anyone ever in the history of the Universe. Ever. Although I might admit that both you and Simon have pretty decent guitars as well........ All kidding aside; aren't we the lucky ones, chaps? P.

Guest Farnsbarns Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 My R8... Pippy's R0 is nearly as good as this! I have thought about a name for it but then I start playing it and forget about naming it. So, here's a thing, Name my guitar! Really, ideas? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Farnsbarns Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 I like "Clementine", just bc of the pickup selector switch. Consider it! Good thinking. Unfortunately all the colours are way off on that shot, the background in the top half is a magnolia wall if that gives you some idea. Both the binding and the switch tip are more of a cream colour. That said, I quite like the name Clementine anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Consider it :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
