Introduction

[Dickie_lewis]

Hello To All!

I am new and I want to Introduce myself. My name is Dickie and I am 42 years old. I started playing guitar about 6 years ago following a tour to Iraq. I was in dire need of a hobby. I have been hooked ever since. I play Lots of Social Distortion, Tiger Army and Gary Moore. I have a 92 MIM Fender Strat with Seymour Duncans in it and an Epi Gold Top. I have a Fender Vibro champ XD practice amp and Recently purchased a 1968 Fender Bassman Head and Cab. I joined because you guys all have so much info that I have used in the past. Looking forward to chatting with you all.

Hi guys, I'm Billy, a new member to your forum. I'm originally from Scotland, but lived in Japan now for the past 5 years. I'm 45 (in 4 days) and have been playing now for some 30-something years.

Guitar (both acoustic and electric) & bass are my main instruments, but I like to keep my hand in with other stuff too, like piano/keyboards, harmonica (mostly folk, not blues), and pretty much anything with strings, like mandolin, bouzouki, etc. I spent 25 years gigging, but now spend most of my time in my home recording studio here in Japan.

I play (amongst other things) an old Epiphone by Gibson LP, recently upgraded with a set of Seymour P-Rails & a Stetsbar trem, and a Jap Fender '57 re-issue with 3 Seymours (quarter-pounders on the neck & bridge, vintage middle) with a Schecter-style toggle-switch re-wire (the Knopfler influence).

I'm very happy to be a member of TGP, and hope I can give as good advice in the future as I've received from you guys in the past.
