Thankyou It's a departure from what I'm used to but really liking it so far. I've always wanted one.

Hi Six, I'm still lurking here from time to time but not so often these days. Only gear from this year so far is my Gretsch that my wonderful partner surprised me with. She has as many guitars as I do so she totally gets it 😁

That's really nice playing. If that's you singing you also have a great voice. Reminded me a lot of Cat Stevens of whom I'm a huge fan. Looks like the hard work paid off.

Nice story

Mine too

According to legend, there was a road in Cambridge UK called Laundry Lane which was home to many people with the surname Arnold and as such became known as Arnold Lane by the locals. One of these was called John Arnold who was a small time crook and together with producing illicit alcohol, his "thing" was stealing high end clothing from clothes lines to resell. John Arnold was known to Roger Waters and was the inspiration for the song. I don't know how much of this is actually true but it's a story I've heard more than once.

I have the book, signed by his guitar tech. Such an interesting read. The Hard Rock Cafe was apparently under the impression that they owned it and Gilmour had quite a battle getting it back.

I wonder how he manages? 😅

I read somewhere that Gilmour found the time signatures too tricky for the solo so they went with 4/4 for it. For the record, he supports Arsenal Football club which is based in London, UK

I'll guess it's an Epi LP Custom

So sorry to hear that. My condolences to his family and friends.

And there's always Prince

In my opinion, a Tele has a tone that's difficult to replicate with another style of guitar which is why I have one in my arsenal. Mine is great to play and never had any issues with it.

Of course, I'd be happy to help if I can though I'm no expert. These are my two basses. The Yamaha long scale and a cheap (but lots of fun) short scale bass. The short scale bass feels very much like a six string in your hands and is (for me) easier to play so I would suggest she tries both to see which she prefers.

It's always nice to have one or two My partner plays too so we have 17 guitars between us and now two basses. I must admit I do enjoy playing bass now and then for a change.
