    I am not a guitarist but have always loved the idea of having a collection of them despite having the dexterity of a flid wearing boxing gloves.

    The collection would have to include;

    Gibson SG in classic red - like the one Angus uses in ACDC
    Fender Telecaster - black body with red pick-up guard
    Fender Jaguar
    Burns Bison bass
    Music Man bass
    Rickenbacker bass
    Gibson Flying V


    Sadly I made the mistake of taking up the drums. They are great on stage but take up far too much room in storage, you need a van to get them to gigs and you can't get them on the bus.

    Come to think of it guitars are rather phallic......

    But how many instruments look like a minge?

    Afternoon ER, surprised to hear from you. I thought the Doctor wrote 'Do Not Resuscitate" on your file.

    I used to tour with the legendary Applejacks back in the late sixties and early seventies. The biggest gig I played was the Beat Bonanza Festival in Berwick upon Tweed. The crowd went wild when I broke into my biggest hit 'Superman Stole My Crumpets' with Malcolm Woodpole on guest lead. Heady days!

    Regarding minge-like instruments, I went out with a girl from Potto who was packing a set of castanets.

    I have one of these. Burns-Baldwin Vibraslim. Original, not the re-issues. The reason I have one of these is that I am very cool. Cooler than you can actually comprehend <ok>


    Some of you may have noticed this instrument has six strings, which means it requires more skill than those four string jobs.



    Other six string guitars are also available.
