Default Another New One!

I've had a couple post but wanted to share a couple pictures of my new toy(s).

I'm a big participant over at www.acousticguitarforum.com and posted these pictures. It's great to be a vette owner!

Outstanding pics.

My accoustic is a Sigma, my electric is an Ibanez Axstar, my Z06 is an '01.

P.S. -- my talent (guitar and vocal)... well, we can't have everything. I do have a tin ear. Unfortunately, I got no rhythm and I can't carry a tune with a bucket. Even so, I have a lot of fun playing and singing. I have even more fun driving my Z06.

I've been playing just over 2 years now. My voice is getting better and I am a "white guy" so I struggle with the rhythm thing as well!

P.S. Where is Meadow Place?

Welcome to the family. Great looking Z but don't let the kids think it's OK to sit on your car. The paint and clear coat are very soft and will leave scratches.

Make sure your first mod is a steering column lock by-pass, I recommend the one from Thunder Racing, their link can be found in the left hand panel as a CF supporting vendor.

Cheers

Tom

The kids are great! They understand the scratch thing, I've left my guitars out hundreds of times and they never touch them. I'm very lucky, I can tell them once and they get it! I don't even have to be mean!

Not only do you have a Z06 but you have a Les Paul too! Life is good!

I defected to a Fender American Strat. Thats almost as bad a getting a Mustang Cobra! Don't worry, another Gibson is on the way. Bye, bye Strat.....


Congrats on the new ride!
