For The Love Of Offsets
Posted: Fri Feb 15, 2019 6:44 am
Hey everyone,
I've read the forums here for many years and finally decided to join. It seems like a cool place to learn new things and pick the brains of like-minded guitar people.
I work in the music gear industry. I also repair guitars. I'm particularly fond of Fenders. Especially the oddballs. My personal favourite top five guitars I've owned over the years are a 2005 Fender Cyclone in black, a 2002 Fender Toronado in Orange, a 1994 MIJ Fender Mustang in Sunburst, a 2017 Fender Jazzmaster Classic 60's Lacquer in Surf Green, and a 2001 CIJ Fender Mustang in Sonic Blue. I'm hoping to add a Daphne Blue Fender Sixty-Six to this list in the near future.
I play a bit of rock (I have a Les Paul I love), I'm a big Thin Lizzy fan, but my main love is surf, both classic and more modern offshoots of surf-based music I don't really have a genre name for. Anything from The Shadows, Tornados, Hank Marvin to The Madeira, The Growlers, etc.
Beyond funky offset guitars and surf music, I love cats, sunshine, nature, pizza, German beer, and The Twilight Zone (the Rod Serling years).
Looking forward to contributing, chatting, and learning new things here. See you around!
