    NGD: a new Tele... but not a Fender

    The guitar is really a pleasure to play. The neck is fast and smooth, the ebony fingerboard is marvelous and pickups are very versatile. I need to discover it more but no regrets at all: much better than some CS Fender tested before ordered this guitar.

    NAD: to be clean, Fender cleans...

    Don't worry: neighbors are far away from me and, luckily, the nearest are old earing impaired persons. Nevertheless, I play my TMTR at home with the 12W settings (it can be already loud) or even 5W settings if wife and childrens are at home. Volume cranked between 4 and 5 and I give it some...

    Yes and no: if you don't connect the footswitch to the amp, reverb and tremolo remains always on... as simple as that

    Elvis Movie review (saw it today)

    I saw it friday night, here, in France. Whaou ! What a movie ! Tom Hank is awesome camping the "bad guy" Colonel Tom Parker, Austin Buttler completely credible as Elvis, and the movie's photography is very beautiful. Definitively a great movie that I will view again with pleasure.

    NGD : Fender ... but Stratocaster

    Hello, Today, I buy a strap for this Telecaster... with the Miami Blue color, it is not easy to find a strap that suit the color. Finally, I found it in the Fender catalog : it is the Houndstooth Jacquar Strap in Teal color. At first, I was thinking about a D'Addario Autolock strap in midnight...

    NAD : Marshall DSL combo

    Hello mikecorey, The speaker remain the original Seventy-80 for the moment. I decided to let it a chance, patiently breaking / bruning it and afterwards only my ears will told the verdict : keep or change. Nevertheless, I will certainly change tubes in V1 and/or V2 to calm the Ultra Gain channel.

    Yes, it is me ! The VOX AC15C1 is the best sounding amp with a Tele IMHO.

    NAD : Marshall DSL combo

    Hello, Even if I am sold to VOX & in love with my AC15C1, I need an amp with "modern" features : playable clean, crunch and classic overdrive with only a Telecaster straight to the amp, without pedal, volume compatible with a domestic use in the family house, capability to enter a MP3 signal...

    NAD : 60's british flavor ...

    Hello, It is not a real NAD because I own this amp since several weeks but, even if it is not the most versatile, it is the one I like to play the most : it sounds soooo emotional ! It is my amp of choice when I want to play for the pleasure. Jazz, blue, surf, classic rock and rockabilly sounds...

    NHD : 2 guitars for one day

    Thanks guys. Both are a real pleasure to play. They got each their personnality, more vintage for the blue, more rock for the blonde... a perfect match with both the Vox AC15C1 and the Marshall DSL20CR that I just start to discover (and it sounds very good too even if my heart is sold to the Vox)

    What's your next guit-toy purchase?

    Thinking trading my Fender Mustang GTX100 (that I almost never play since I got the Vox AC15C1) to a Marshall Origin 50C combo... The power reduction capability of the Marshall seems to be a perfect option in order to practice & do some musical research at low volume...

    Greatings from south of France

    Thanks ! Yes, I saw it and post a reply. Nevertheless, no need for a car to feel at home (Since august 2020, on the week-end, I rode a yellow Corvette C7 Z06, so... for cars, I am not at home) when we got a Telecaster and friends...music is kind of things that is "frontier less".

    A French 'farmer's car' in South Dakota?

    In France, this car, the 2CV was revolutionary when launched (the first car with 4 independants wheels suspensions). It is now a legend & the value goes up because it is difficult to find one in a perfect condition. The most valued are the earliest and the special series (like the Charleston)...
