Hello

My name is tom paxton. I have just found this site and really love it so far. Everyone seems pretty rad.

I have been playing guitar for a while now. I worked in a recording studio for about 3-4 years, travelled
as a road manager for two very well know S.A. bands and then went full time into my own band for a while.

I play a fender japan 69 thinline reissue tele, really, really nice and have a bunch of pedals. Busy trying to find
a 60's ac30.

I always used to use digital gear, but have recently become a purist and love vintage tone. As a result i have
started building and modding pedals and enjoy that a lot. I really like working with my hands and built a pedal
board that closes as a case. I would love to build a tube amp one day!

    welcome! ?

    care to divulge which bands?
      Hi and welcome! That Tele sure has my attention, care to upload some pictures?

      Good to have you aboard!

                      Do you get people saying things like "and I'm the Queen of England?" ?

                      Welcome. And that looks like a nice axe you have.

                            Why?
                            Alan has already tipped you off.

                            This reminds me of a product launch that I was at many years ago and at which the main sales rep for the company concerned got things embarassingly wrong.

                            Lesley Rae Dowling was invited. Said rep said "she won't pitch". She did. She was very polite, no airs and graces, and easy on the eyes.

                            She finds herself talking to said rep, holds out her hand and says "Oh... I'm Lesley Rae Dowling".

                            He says "Right! And I'm the Queen of f...ing England."

                            Oops.
