Hi from France

Post by NIN »

Hi everbody,

I am about to become a happy (hopefully) G&L Tribute Asat Classic Bluesboy in two weeks for my 40th anniversary. I am kind of a newbie in the guitar world. I have been playing for about 4 years on an entry level folk guitar (Cort).
After a lot of reading and several sessions in my favorite guitar shop which has recently become a G&L reseller (France is so far...), I've finally chosen the Classic Bluesboy telecaster (in spite of the pickguard that I don't really like), with a Hughes & Kettner tubemeister 5 combo amp. Best tested combination to my ears !

I am now ready to get electrical shocks !!

Thank you !

I will be glad to post pictures, but I'll wait for the pickguard replacement by the one ordered on the G&L online store. Unfortunately, I have no information on the processing of my order. I hope the store is reliable and that I will receive it. :think:

bienvenue ainsi que joyeux anniversaire.

de quel coin de la France viens-tu?

Bien choisi avec une G&L, dommage qu'il n'y a pas enormement de 'dealers' en France comme en Italie...

`a tres bientot.

To gvitale. Merci. Je viens des Yvelines. Je vais dans un magasin de guitare très sympa en pleine campagne (ça se fait très rare) qui s'aligne peu ou prou sur les prix du net. Il ne fait pas du G&L depuis longtemps et j'ai quand même l'impression que cette marque est en train de gagner du terrain en France. A voir dans l'avenir.

To darwinohm. I don't have received it yet, but I'll post ASAP.

Bienvenue (that's about the extent of my French, sorry)!

I hope you like the Tribute Bluesboy. When I was choosing my G&L it came down to the Tribute Bluesboy and the Tribute Comanche. I went with the Comanche, but it was a tough choice, the Bluesboy has its own little "something special" going on :)
