Hello everybody. My name is Neal, i'm from Glasgow in sunny Scotland. You'll probably guess from my user name that i'm a lefty - occasionally this is a pain, but for the most part I like being a little different. Makes the hunt for that next guitar all the more interesting!

I just recently got my very first Telecaster style guitar, hope to share some photos with you later on

Aye, there's quite a few of us here in Scotland, I'll let you know if any of the guitar shops in Stirling get any interesting lefties!

LeftyFretz · August 30th, 2011, 11:52 AM

GuitarGuitar in Glasgow is really excellent for lefties - by far and away the best store I've ever come across.

Yeah, go see them, nice people. very much into vintage stuff and Tele's in particular. I meant to send you a text from your Gumtree listing but never got round to it. (I presume you're the same guy, can't be too many people in Alloa looking for Tele's!)

I will drop in next time I'm in Stirling,but I'm afraid it isn't my Gumtree listing,I've already got two teles plus a couple of other 'lesser' electric guitars and various acoustic instruments so I have been told that 'you've got enough guitars'

maybe Alloa has become telecentral in Scotland without me realising it..

Hello from Fife!

ScottJPatrick · September 7th, 2011, 04:20 PM

Hello Fife, did a gig in kirkcaldy on Saturday, had a good time!

A.B.Negative · September 8th, 2011, 12:26 PM

Where did you play? The Path and the Windsor are the usual places to play in Kirkcaldy.

ScottJPatrick · September 8th, 2011, 05:05 PM

Kirkcaldy rock club, first Saturday of every month at the Abbey, down the Kinghorn end of the High St. First time we've done it, hope to be back in the new year, 2 or 3 bands, couple of solo acts, runs 8 - 1. http://barebonesfife.wordpress.com/kirkcaldy-rock-club/
