Greetings fellow string smiters

Conrad

Hi all

I totally lost my previous password and I changed jobs twice since I've been here last time but I missed the forum alot. Consequently I am compelled to convey the unfortunate reality of my return ?.

My name is Conrad Pienaar. I am from Pretoria. At the moment I am playing flamenco and classical guitar but also neo-classical and prog rock & metal to a lesser degree but hopefully this can and or will change with time.

At the moment I am using a Yamaha CGX 111 SCA that I managed to hotrod with an L.R. Baggs Dual Source for FLamenco and Classical.
For Jazz, Celtic, Latin & Blues, I am using an old Takamine G series that now has some cooltube pickup after some compulsive shopping.
For all the electric stuff I am using an Ibanez SCA 220, A Shecter Omen 7 and an old freaking Ferarri red Ibanez RG 370 and I put that through an old Marshall valvestate 8080.

Glad to be back

Welcome back!

Conrad

Thanks guys.

Glad to be back. Bad case of GAS though... these guys make the nicest nylon string acoustics that I have played so far.

I want to bring in this model in particular

but I am SO afraid it gets damaged on the way. I have seen that happen.

Tom (as in Marian's husband) is that you?

Alan I still love that electric on your profile pic.
