  • Ok.
    So I’ve moved to the Isle of Harris. I know mad sod.
    But I’ve been asked to be in a band. Mainly for my singing but also because I know which end of a guitar to hold.
    I sold my US Std Strat to move to Bristol because I hadn’t played it for yonks 3 years ago. Been playing my old Washburn acoustic since.

    But I need amplification ! So. I need a new electric guitar and an amp. Yay !

    But what to get ? I am a strummer not a twiddler and I want to lay down a decent rythym. The shortlist is :-
    GUITAR
    GRetsch Streamliner G2620 hollow body
    Gretsch G2622 semi hollow
    Or the Electromatic versions of each
    Epiphone Dot
    PRS SE Custom Semi Hollow
    Or
    Some sort of Tele
    Or Some sort of LP (so many options !)

    Amp
    Champ 100
    Blues Junior
    Blues Deville

    Anyone got any thoughts / suggestions / experiences and preferences ??

  • Fun times ahead man!

    For me I would absolutely choose one of the new Epiphone ES-335s with the new headstock for that type of money...

    As far as amps go I'd strongly consider a Boss Katana Artist if you can find a used one for a good price or else a Fender Tonemaster Deluxe Reverb if you're feeling a tiny bit spendier... all the valve tone but the solid state practicality.
