NEWBIE

Postby jeffee » Thu Mar 10, 2011 9:32 am

I have a vintage country band in Orlando Florida called Giddy Up Go..
i'm the rhythm / singer / songwriter in the band.. playing an acoustic gibson J-185.

i've had several vintage guitars ('74 Telecaster Thinline / '79 Hagstrom Super Swede / '66 Jaguar) all were great guitars, but were lacking that "vintage country vibe" i was looking for.

Lost my job 2 years ago and had to sell 'em to survive! Now i'm back working again...

i'm on a mission (meaning i'm saving-up) for a single neck Joe Maphis Mosrite - can't get any more country than Joe Maphis, right?? (i've got about 90% of his records!) and i've loved that Mosrite twaaaang he produces!!

i've read about a 100 guitar books that mention Mosrite and the story behind it all.... and that's made me wanna learn more.

our lead guitarist is pretty good (i think) he ol' school & makes his strat sound like a steel guitar!
