I remember this! it's from some punk mag in about 1978, isn't it? I read it in Smith's in the shopping precinct in Stockport...

It's from "Sniffing Glue" iirc?

My pride and joys are these very cheap but very playable beauties:

This is a Chinese Les Paul copy made by Columbus. I'm 42 and my mum and dad bought it me for my 16th birthday. Cost £80! Have had new pick ups put in and had it refretted at Purple Turtle in Bredbury (can't let go of it due to sentimental value). Plays alright still.

Mrs Bow bought me this acoustic/electric from Purple Turtle as a Christmas present a couple of years ago. Not sure how much - not more than £150 and probably less. It's a Guvnor (no, never heard of it before either!) and had a bone bridge put in instead of the plastic one that was there originally. A mate of mine is a pro-musician and has used it for a gig. He said it was actually a really good guitar. I love it has a really deep sound to it. Set of Martin bog standard strings on it:

And finally, treated myself to one of these. Every home should have one. Was on offer at £110 from, yep you guessed it, Purple Turtle. It's a Delta Blue and plays very nice, but I'm no expert so probably shouldn't comment. I love it:

Great pics strongbow.

I used to own a Strat with the s1 switch (to make it sound a little more like a Les Paul) wish I'd kept it.

Cheers bud. I've got a ukelele too but the kids have mullered it. Love monkeying around with my guitars. I'm not very good but it annoys the fuck out of Mrs Bow, so happy days :D

60s Stella Harmony with steel reinforced neck.. It's a little 3/4 sized parlour/blues guitar and a nice one to have knocking around at home!

I'm in love with this guitar. I can't stop looking at it.

It's a goodun.. Didn't cost too much either.. Could probably pick one up for £200/300 with a bit of hunting.. I have a Washburn Augusta too, it's a nice alternative!
