Howzit from New York City!

Oig

Hey you guys.

I'm an expat who's been living in the States for the last 11 years, and a fellow guitar-nut. Thought I'd stick my head in and say hi! I played in a few bands back in JHB forever ago, and even though my family and I are crammed into a small (by Jo'burg standards) Manhattan apartment, I still play pretty regularly - daily practice and a set every weekend at the church we're a part of, mostly on electric and sometimes on bass.

About gear: I've been lucky on that front, and have some nice stuff ?

What else? NY's great but we miss SA something terrible sometimes. Especially during these crazy, brutal winters. I couldn't feel my face it was so cold yesterday. Anyways, looking forward to meeting y'all...

Cheers,
G

That's an impressive list of gear! ???

Welcome to the forum!

Send us some of the gear that you pay in dollars for and we'll send some sunshine in a box. ?

Ag, thanks. I could do with all the sunshine I can get. Wors and biltong are in short supply too.... :'(
