Topic: Should this be happening????????????

So a while back I bought another Greg Bennet. This time his take on a Les Paul, an AV6, Spalted Maple top, about 3mm thick and a mahogany 4 piece body. It has the Duncan Design trem bucker pick ups in it, a crap Wilkinson bridge  but nice Grover machine heads.

So since I have my Blackstar I am doing some serious bonding with this guitar it sounds just like I have always imagined my sound would be like, (with a little help from the Blackstars ISF).

My problem is I don't want to bond with this £300 guitar I want to bond with my Gibson, yet it is just not happening I don't vibe when playing the SG like I do with Greg Bennet. I have just ordered a hard case for Greg Bennet as I don't want it get damaged.

Should this bonding be happening??

Imagine if the words of Imagine ever came true.....

This is quite normal James,  default/big_smile  you can't fight it, don't even try,  default/tongue just roll with it, if the Greg Bennet does it for you then so be it, Brand and price isn't the be all and end all,

I agree with Alun - it isn't about price nor brand.

Having said that you are still relatively newly associated with your Gibson so give it time! Some relationships take a while to mature!

Its getting quite a friendship, I have just bought a cheap EQ pedal and got it sounding even better.

I polished Annie today twice (I named the samick Annie, as the natural wood finish reminds me of the 70s, plus I have a black and electric blue strap and for some reason this all reminds me of 70s porn. The first porn movie I ever saw was called little oral Annie hence the name).

I am planning to do some recording on Thursday after my last exam.
