Not that it exists anymore as far as I can tell, at least from my Sydney eyes If you are around, you should totally play it next time I come through Melbourne with a band
yeah sort of! Just start a band with Chris and Blake from TFF. Catfood still exists, but they got threatened with a fine again so aren't doing shows anymore. Who're you playing with these days?
I wasn't expecting to get a Dot but I think I'm really turning into more a humbucker guy. I did the mod to my Tele yonks ago. Everyone in the band loved it and sounded WICKED. The band broke up. I had no place for that 'register'/'sound'/'whateverthefuckyouwanttocallit' so I went back to Jazzmasters and got an AVRI and whacked on a set of 13-52 and Bobs your uncle. Yup... only one slight problem. I sold 6-7 Jazzmasters previous to that (I've only had one JM and my Tele for long stints) because there wasn't enough sustain. So I go off looking for a new guitar, mainly had the idea of getting a Harmony Rocket till I tried them, nup... similar to the Jazzmaster in that it wasn't getting me the darker/rounder sounds. Tried a few Gibsons while waiting for an attendant to help me with some PRS guitars I saw a lonely Epi in the corner. I picked her up, typical e-story, one strum and I fell in love. I used to be a lot 'bigger' (read chubbier/rounder) and they never really felt comfortable but now that I'm older/no more puppy fat (LOL! 60kgs of it) she sits beautifully and sounds spectacular!
Much props to Epi for getting their shit together. I preferred this over the Gibson 335 to be honest.
I now have 2 electrics for the first time since forever! Feels great

^ Thanks dude! Hell yeah your girlfriend has style; but what is it with girls and Epiphones?
I've never met a girl with a Squier but I've dated 3 girls with Epiphone guitars/basses. I think Squier need to work on their marketing! Nothing hotter than a chick with a Mustang bass

that's actually a really good point squier needs to step up! and i wish i knew more female musicians...i love being in bands with girls. i find it easier to write with them, they never smell like a sweaty drum set and they don't steal my fucking mountain dew. 3 great reasons why we should recruit women to play in bands.

And yeah; girls are far easier to work with creatively. I did Journalism at Uni and had barely any guys in my class and it took that for me to realise how comfortable I felt around girls vs. males. I'd always get ridiculed or gentrified by guys in my class as I had an interest in poetry at a young age (hey; it gets the girls!) but as soon as I was in that female element shit just started ticking, homework became fun and I was able to do things that I would have otherwise never tried. I have to say though; writing music with your girlfriend has to be the most fun thing I have ever done. Just the familiarity vs. previous projects for me was the deal sealer. It forced me into transform into this character and boy did it work
