# Yeah, tbh the majority of the actual sound is about the amp
the most important thing about the guitar is the feel to play. (up to a point obv)

You can make a tele sound like a lespaul (as close as anyone cares) with eq-ing or whatever else.

# Thanks for that.
I wasn't the only one to say what I have just said, but opinion's opinion.

# Oh, you do what you like
I was just saying that I was agreeing with my two guitarists who had noted similar opinions to my own on the subject. (funnily enough, one of which plays a Gibson as well, the wife's got his dad's old SG from the seventies)

Sorry, I've been called a 'silly little woman' already today, it's got my back up a bit.

I have practice tonight, and then the comeback gig on Saturday. It's nice to be requested.

# that is awful, did you lay the smack down?
Yeah, my old man's still got his '73 SG II it's lush. He's well up for me playing it but i'm too worried about damaging, i already bleached out it's original cherry by leaving it in the sun.

I'll get it all fixed up for him one day.

# It goes a little something like this
dickface in kitchen one: well, I'm a bassist and I love my marshall, they're the best in the world
dickface in kitchen two: oh, yes, yes, Marshall are the best
me: I use a Hartke 3500 and it's top notch, I really enjoy it
dickface in kitchen one: don't be stupid Fae, silly little women can't play guitars.

He was joking, but still. He's avoiding my eye now. Even nowadays people appear suprised when I say I play bass, and woe-fucking-betide I have an opinion.

So yes. Sore point.

# well, shame on him.
it's not like fucking weightlifting. Would he have a problem if it was a celo, cos there's not much difference technically.

Also if he's thinks Marshall bass amps are the best he's a n00b.

# Innit.
I'd own him on weightlifting, he's about my height and skinny.

Armwrestle him.

Should bring him down a peg.

Have him raped by lots of little ladies with great big strap-on toys (or fists, but that's mucky).

Should bring him down a peg or two.
