Yes, I know, although it seems sad to get a lot of great equipment and having no one to play with Disapprove For now my combo amp will have to do Tongue

You should also get a decent amp. Guitar and amp are the most important parts of the rig ;)

^ You're right, I need to get some serious effects, although right now I'm still contemplating its amazing clean sound Wink

Thanks Siniša! I appreciated your suggestion the other day but I was affraid to regret my purchase, since I couldn't try those guitars Ermm

^ I'm trying to stay out of the music store because I always walk out with something I don't
need but wanted anyway. I'm like a kid in a candy store, I want one of everything. Wink

^ You can probably get one easier than me, since those are made in California Tongue
I wanted to make the right purchase, precisely because I want a guitar that I'll enjoy playing for many years. So far no regrets Big smile

^ Very, very nice. I'm envious.
I have loved my Strat since the day I got it and it has been played many times more
than any of my guitars.
I hope you have years of enjoyment playing that beauty.

After saving some money and doing a lot of research, it all came down to try some guitars I had in mind on the store and analyse the sound and the feeling of playing the guitar. I also tried a high quality Ibanez, and I felt the same thing I do with my guitar of the same brand... nothing Ermm
I bought a 60th anniversary American Standard Fender Stratocaster and it sounds amazing, I already played a lot of Floyd with it Big smile


Thank you guys for all the great advices Thumbs Up

My music is not on the level of something people would buy.
It is all instrumental with me playing three or four different guitar tracks.
When I first got the recorder I played around with it and ended up with several songs that I burned onto a CD. 
I gave them away to friends and family members.
They all said they liked it but, they kinda had to say that because they're friends and family.

Do you use youtube or are there other sites for storing and sharing your music?
Some people here upload their stuff to Soundcloud, you can find some examples in the 'PA Songwriters and Composers Association" thread. But I have never done it, I don't know how it works precisely.



Thanks for the info, I will look into this.
There's also bandcamp, which allows you to charge money. How much money does the average artist actually make off that? Probably none if they aren't an established artist already. But it's nice to have the option.

Binson echorec is one of the best sounding echoes I've ever heard.
I owned roland re-301 chorus echo, roland re-201 space echo (I sold it to the keyboardist - that's how I found him) and they are nothing compared to a Binson.

But you also have to know how to use it, otherwise it is useless.

Now I am stuck with 4 echorecs (one of them is stereo) and one vintage binson PA system

Very nice indeed. 
I just bought a new camera yesterday and would like to post some pics.
But I'm still having trouble changing my avatar.

You can store 3 hours of music with the free account, if you record as many music as me it's more than enough LOL
