    Default Hello From The UK

    Hello everyone....Just a quick hello from me before I take a PROPER look around...

    I'm Mark......I've been playing guitar since I was about 13....which..If my maths is correct..is about 36 years!!!...and I'm STILL rubbish....

    Here's a little pic of my current collection...
    plus the most recent addition....a great little 'Vintage' V100 Les Paul Gold Top Copy..which I got only a week or so back...less than 200 Pounds..brand new in the box!!!....possibly the best value guitar I have ever played!!!!

    I look forward to chatting guitars...and all things guitar orientated...with you all!!!!


    NO PICS..!!.LOL...Can't seem to upload anything....could anyone give me some pointers as to how I can attached some pics to my posts???

    Welcome Mark! The easiest way to post pics is to upload them to a site like photobucket.com, then use the button above the reply boxl that has a mountain with the sun over it to include the link.

    Welcome Mark! We like outlaws here.
