I'm not sure buying a really expensive guitar to just look good playing (especially just in your living room!) can be justified unless you are turning into a proper guitar collector!

You should get out and play a few and see what you think.

My Les Paul has turned out to be way better than I expected in playability and tone with the plus point of it looking cool!

They were meant to fixed at £20 however after the first day when there was so much traffic they scrapped that rule and they just charged what they wanted.

The most we paid was £35 but 2 taxis a day for 3 days became pretty expensive between 2 people!

Good news is that the weather *may* be changing next week so hopefully some sun at last!

No I am not one for camping at the best of times and I am very glad I did - I stayed in the holiday inn at Derby - it just meant that the taxis were ridiculously expensive for the whole three days and there were loads of delays in getting there and getting back!

Still better than sliding around in mud I think!

your photos are great- brings back good memories!

James - it was dry but incredibly muddy on day 1!

Sounds good. I didn't see Lamb Of God as didn't know who they were but only heard good things about them since!

Saw loads of good bands. Never heard of Steel Panther before and I really liked their set!

It was nice there was a bit of sun on the Sunday!

Hi James

It cannot be directed at you. You pretty much hold this whole place together.

I tried my hardest to try and get traffic to the site. I did everything I believe I could. I spent many hours working on the site, many many hours on SEO and paid a lot of money on SEO. I got the site up to page 1 in Google for a few good terms but it was still real hard to get the visitors here.

Then after all this effort, last year Google dropped the site from the front page and it vanished into the abyss.

Considering the amount of time and money spent this was incredibly disheartening however this is the way things work in the SEO game.

I am truly grateful to the likes of James, Poly and everyone else who continues to try and keep this forum alive.

Over the last year or so I have been incredibly busy in my job. I have a young family and I also have to try and actually get some guitar playing in. So my time resources have been stretched to the max. Therefore I have not been putting the time into developing a new strategy to bring more users to the forum and I am even guilty of not posting nearly as much as I should do.

So I am not going to give in and I will dedicate more time just as soon as I can. for now I am going to move the domain in case it is that that is causing the penalty within Google.

Thanks for the continued support.

Sorry to hear that Iain.

I'm sure it isn't because people cannot be bothered though!

Here is my Les Paul. In the end I went for a classic plus. I am not sure all the ins and outs of the differences but what I do know is this has the 60s neck which is a lot slimmer than the 50s so it plays really easily. It is also non chambered - or at least not the extent as the standards.

It plays really nicely and I am loving it at the moment.

This is my custom made "Robin Greenwood" guitar. He is a local guy to my area and he has done a superb job on this. The sound is great and I can only see it improving with time.

It would be so cool if this did turn out to be priceless!!

Tell more more - or is there already a thread about it?

Is it B B King?

Can I have your SG?
