What a lovely stuff!

What model is it?

I have a Fender aswell, a U.S. Fender Stratocaster. A U.S. model! None of your crappy cheap Mexican models here!

That's it there, except mines a darker blue. Same guitar as Rory Gallagher and Jimi Hendrix used... :D

Sl�n

Left-handed as well? B)

No, it's right handed. Like Rory's. And besides, Jimi used a right handed Strat upside down...so there!

You're not a damn leftie are you? :P

My model is 095-7400 STRATACOUSTIC AC/EL GUITAR OWT
================
Fianna, that's Standard Stratocaster 013-4600 (or 013-4602). Most of them are made in Mexica, Squire Standards are made in South Korea and only FENDER RICHIE SAMBORA STANDARD STRATOCASTER 113-2700 are USA made.
But may be (I hope so) that is 011-9600-857 BECK STRATOCASTER SFG or 011-9600-805 FENDER JEFF BECK STRATOCASTER - both USA made.

================
I work at FENDER representation in Russia :D

It says made in USA on the headstock!

I also have a Yamaha Pacifica, which was my first guitar. Pretty cheap, but one of the best electrics you can get for that price.

Pretty cool that you work for Fender. Maybe you can get me a good deal on my next guitar! :P Actually maybe not...cause my next one's gonna be a Gibson! :D Either way, any eqipment I get from now on I'm gonna buy on the net, order it from the continent. You can get the stuff for almost half price compared to the music shops in Dublin, they rip you off big time.

Sl�n

I really guess it's Jeff Beck... USA made...

It gonna be profit for ye, Fianna, if you will buy Fender or Ibanez being yourself in Moscow - I promise...
And now let me guess - the next one is Les Paul?

OH MAN, I AM GETTING A BIG CHUBBY JUST LOOKING AT THOSE! :wub:
I am not a Lefty, but where did you see Hendrix playing a right-handed guitar upside down?

And that's an instrument I keep dreaming about -

It's just what he did Patrick. His trademark cream Strat which he played most of the time (have a look at Woodstock) is just a right-hand Strat upside down. I think the fretboad might have been modified a bit, but the body is just upsidedown. Check out this pic and the bottom right pic on the image Sean posted:

You can see that the tuning pegs are under the headstock and the tone and volume controls are above the scratch plate...it's upsidedown! I think it's only for his cream Strat though, I've seen him play other guitars that are proper left handers.

Sean, my Strat definately isn't a Jeff Beck model! It's just a US Standard. Maybe they're not allowed sell Yankie Strats over in Russia, that's why you haven't seen one! :P You know a shit lot more than me about guitars but I'm positive this is US made. I'll get the model number for you if you want, but I'm sure it's US.

Yeah, the Custom Celtic is very nice, you played it? I've seen it in a guitar shop called Music Maker here in Dublin. I'll check the price out today and might have a go on it, looks very nice.

But yeah, dream guitar's a Gibson Les Paul Custom. Here it is, just for Patrick... :P

Except mine won't be white, it'll be Wine Red. See the markers on the fret? They're made from pearl! Gold humbuckers! I've no idea how much it costs, but I've seen it in sale and there was no price on it, meaning it's probably the price of a decent car...

What a wonderfull topic we have here!
Fianna, have you seen what guitar BelFasT guitarist is playin?
(IMG:http://www.belfast.ru/foto/064.jpg)
And here is my dream of the dreams. Ah!
(IMG:http://www.gretschguitars.com/images/G6120OS_xl.jpg)
Eddie Cochrainn's model... :wub:

Is that a Standard he's playing? What's the story with the brown strap! At least match your strap colour with your guitar colour! :rolleyes:

The cheapest you'd pay for a Gibson Les Paul here in Dublin would be �1,300. That's the botom of the line. Then to get anything above that you'd have to re-mortgage your house. And sell your car. And maybe your body...

I've never played a Gretsch in my life, cause the shops around here never have many in stock, they don't seem to be that popular. I know a girl in a band who plays one though, she swears by them. She got it free though for being way too talented. Surely you get some kinda discount when buying Fender guitars, no? Not really my type of guitar but it does look very nice...especially the massive tail-piece!

Think we win for most images posted on a thread...

HANDS DOWN! MOST PICS! :D
I feel like such an idiot. Growing up in the 60s and 70s, 'Rock and Roll' was my life. It was also a time where reefer was readily available and everyone smoked it.
I always knew hendrix was left handed, but never noticed that his guitar was right-handed. (must have been some really good pot) B)
Thank you for pointing that out to me. Wow, That is SO STRANGE. For 30 years, I never noticed that.
Speaking of things that I never noticed........ Has anyone ever heard of the 'DiVinci code'?

Fianna, Papa John is playin' a Blues Hawk and strap doesn't matter - the quality of the playin' does 8))
Do not sell your car and your body! Just come and visit Moscow. We shall find something for you. Especially if you do not mean the brand new model... (yes, I have some discounts).
Gretsch is aaah, the dream, like Eldorado.
Patrick, it would be impossible to speak on this topic without any pics.
What is 'DiVinci code'?

Lets see.... The 'DiVinci code'...
Micheal Angelo painted "The Last Supper"....
That painting depicted Jesus and his deciples...
Were all of his deciples men? Look again. Seated to Jesus' right is not a man, but a woman. The DiVinci code suggests that it was actually Mary Magdelon.
Anyway, Long story short... I never noticed in that painting that there was a woman sitting next to Jesus. (maybe that reefer thing again) :wacko:
'The DiVinci code' is in paperback or hard cover. Very Interesting reading.
