@SKT It's from Richard Henry's facebook feed - he's a reputable guitar trader and tech as well as a good friend of Johnny's.

Anyone who hasn’t tried an Eastman guitar is missing out on probably the best Gibson-style guitars for the money on the market. Near-custom-shop quality for less than a standard USA model. Just picked this one up and I’m beside myself at how killer of a guitar it is.

@xtcclassic From a drummers perspective,that's a really cool looking guitar. I was in a roots rock band with a guitar player who used a Les Paul Jr.,which,kind of, looks like that. What kind of music will you be playing with it?

[xtcclassic]

@Jett129 just straight up loud-ass rock and roll, as it should be.

This went up on YouTube today, one for the Johnny Marr & guitar nerd fans!

Johnny Marr has just published a book called "Marr's Guitars", which features eighty-three of his collection. I flicked through a copy yesterday and it looks interesting.

Bought this 2020 White Falcon. Great Guitars, Unique sound.

[JunkPants]

@George-Homme Very cool!

[Jett129]

@George-Homme When I was a kid I went to an event called Gretsch Guitarama and it was at this event that they first introduced the White Falcon. The Searchers were the band that they were sponsoring for the event as they played all Gretsch gear. Just curious, what kind of music will you be playing on it?

[George Homme]

@Jett129 what year that was?

I will play rockabilly and rock in general.

[Jett129]

@George-Homme It had to be 1966,and I thought they were introducing the White Falcon,but upon googling it,I learned that it was first released in 1954. Maybe it was the fact that it had stereo capabilities.

[George Homme]

@Jett129 wanna see something interyabout falcon stereo capabilities?

Check after 15:16 here

Andertons Music have done a behind the scenes video of the Gibson factory.

They also took a look around the Gibson Custom Shop, which was really interesting. It also makes me think that I should be saving up for one.

Recently picked up a Jackson SL7 ET. Very cool guitar.

Rocking my IHT-1600 and 777S-SB's

Anyone here a Suhr guitar fan? I've played Strats and Teles for years and lately have been leaning heavily into strats, and I have a guy locally wanting to trade a Suhr Classic Pro for my 1964 Bassman head and matching cab that I've got. Good deal?

Love his '60 Gibson ES-355, makes me glad to have a '59! I'll never be able to make it sing like him, though!

I've been playing professionally for 40 years and just recently retired from gigging. You name the guitar, I've owned it at one point. Here are just a few

[Jett129]

@edgarallanpoe I played drums all my life,but pretty much always in guitar based rock bands. Didn’t see any Gretsch,or Rickenbacker guitars. Where are you located?

[AdamJ]

@edgarallanpoe awesome. What's your favourite?

[edgarallanpoe]

@AdamJ my favorite guitars are my custom ones built for me by Nik Huber. I have 4, a Dolphin II in Korina with brazilian rosewood fretboard. If it isn't the first one in korina he made it's damn close. The other is a Redwood Dolphin..it's a hollow korina body with a one piece redwood top, braz board. A dolphin Jr in korina with braz board and an Orca (LP style) with korina body, eastern maple top and braz board.

His guitars just speak to me and have since the first time I played them at NAMM in the early 2000's.
