Guitar...

Played in High School & Uni Band with songs ranging from oldies (to entertain the conservative teachers) to Bon Jovi & Metallicas in Uni... Had a Prince electric but left it back home and I think been sold since I have migrated here...

Now I only have 2 acoustics instruments:

- Ibanez acoustic guitar

- Samick acoustic bass (Greg Bennett styled)

Thread revived from the death...

Samick acoustic bass sold, can't really master a bass, just not for me...

still have the Ibanez acoustic despite I felt the action was a bit too high and hard to play in the first few frets due to the high action...

In addition I got an Epiphone arch top Emperor Joe Pass sig series... got this 2nd hand, still in good condition...

Unsure if it's fake or not... but at a price less than half retail it's too hard to resist...

PS: before anyone commented on the pink bedsheet. I do not have any 'macho' issue with pink colour, so ask yourself, do you?

plus it's on a spare bed in the study for any additional guest we may have staying over :-)

I think you do have an issue or you wouldn't have felt the need to mention it or justify it :blink:

I play zee guitar.

I got a Yamaha Acoustic and electric guitar.

Japanese made Fender Stratocaster and a BC Rich Warlock.

Peavey Studio Pro 112 Amp and a AXL Quadbox.

Next guitar, I want a Dime'O Flame (Dimebag / Pantera), which were made by Washburn then Dean Guitars.

If it is hard to get that then either a ESP / LTD / Jackson / Schecter (maybe).

played drums for about 8 years - pearl export, paste 2002 crash / splash / rippled hi-hats / ride / double kick.

lost intrest about 3 or 4 years ago and bought a guitar - schecter omen extreme - only play it every now and then just for something to do lol

I knew someone wouldn't be able to resist not to comment on that :-)

ha ha

I do have pink business shirt too...

been playing drums for about 9 years and have had a yamaha stage custom nouveau for a while. played on many kits but for me nothing beats a yamaha maple absolute which will be my next kit but the 33 is not helping me with my saving :) lol plus the $5000 price and the 4-6 month wait from japan is putting me off a tad.

^^practice amp? get a behringer. packed full of goodies and power for a nothing price.

I had like 4 drum lessons and i sucked!

I bought a peavey cherry red electric guitar and amp, only picked it up a couple of times due to the fact I had no time to play it so I sold it. it was so pretty though :)

and I learnt piano for years when I was younger, stil kicking myself i gave that up, seeing as i now have a piano and the only thing I can play on it is the ice cream man song. .

i play guitar...

- 1995 Epiphone Les Paul

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
