« 11 » Roland G-707 Synth Guitar Controller
6th October 2011
This synth controller was purchased back in the early 80's, when Roland were still tuning their synth controlling gear. It was purchased from a hock shop for probably too much money, and was later matched to the synth portion (the Roland GR-700, not pictured here) from a private sale. These are the details from the Roland site:
« 12 » Epiphone 5 string Banjo MB 200
4th October 2011
I bought this Epiphone banjo from eBay when I was experimenting with different instruments, it didn't cost a lot due to a re-glued head turning a lot of people off, but it keeps tune very well for what looks like a mid-range priced instrument. It came with a hard case with the "Epiphone" logo, and sports chrome hardware. A 26 1/4" scale neck with a 1-1/4" nut. Bolt-on neck Mahogany neck with rosewood fingerboard and a Mahogany body. Has an American Eagle design on the back in gold paint looks beautiful adds a great touch to this instrument. US made, I'm not too sure of it's history pre-2003 when I first purchased it, although it looks as though the neck was replaced at some stage.

« 15 » New PRS SE Torero Guitar
31st January 2011
Richard orders a new guitar and it finally arrived - a Paul Reed Smith Torero.
The SE Torero features several firsts for PRS — a Floyd Rose bridge, EMG pickups, and neck through body construction among them — that should appeal to both the existing PRS player and a new audience and musician. The minimal/unpronounced heel smoothly blends into the body and the deeper, lower cutaway gives easier and smoother accessibility to the upper frets while the pick-ups provide power, clarity, and definition. These features all contribute to the Torero’s notable sustain, and the bound ebony fretboard with jumbo frets and no inlays paired with a mahogany body and flame-maple veneer give this guitar a very distinct look.
