    Default Hi

    Hello, folks and season's greetings.

    I'm Mark and I live near Wellington in New Zealand. Although I'm without a gig here yet, I play what might loosely be called roots rock (bits of country, blues, folk/rock, you know the stuff).

    My current gear after much eBay culling before I moved out here from London, UK is:

    Fender American Ash Telecaster, Fender US Stratocaster (1994 SE), Gibson J45, Larrivee Cherub parlour, anonymous lap steel.

    Tech 21 Trademark 60 (the amp I can't get rid of), Vox DA5 for playing along with the stereo.

    I'm a sparse user of effects, currently having Boss BD-2, TR-2 and DD-3, plus a Bad Monkey. Off the board at the moment are an old Proco Rat, a Danelectro Tuna Melt, an Ernie Ball VP and a Boss GE-7.

    Cheers,

    Mark

    Welcome, Mark! Nice gear. I hear a lot of good comments about that Trademark 60.

    Seriously, it's been in the planning for years. My partner of fifteen years is a kiwi and it just became inevitable.

    Acoustic: Guitar > microphone > audience
