Sounds great. What is a GA5? What else did you use?

This isn't me playing. The guy used custom, handmade guitar (not a Tele!) and Shure SM58 microphone....

Just took delivery of a GA5 today. Lovely build quality for such low asking price.

Love the way it almost looks like it says GAS on the front. Hmm... looks like a repackaged Epiphone.

It is, except that the GS5 has a tone knob, i recently A/B'ed them a a local music shop, and trust me they are identical!
(But the price is certainly not!)

Harley Benton GA5: €95

Epiphone Valve Junior: €168

Darn it - double post!

Personally, I prefer the blond leatherette on the HB.

Also check this out, the Fender type mod seems well worth the extra dough IMO:
