Hello there...

I'm a long time Fender player and figured I'd sign up and say hi.

Brief bio:
Age: 50+
Experience: Been playing for decades... Heck, I was around 12 years old back when the Beatles came out with "Let It Be", and I started to play guitar!
Electric guitar: 1995 Fender Stratocaster, sunburst finish, maple neck.
Acoustic guitar: 2006 Fender 12 string.
Acoustic guitar: Takamine 6 string.
Mandolin: Ibanez "A" style mandolin.
Bass: a cheap POS pawn shop, Samick 4 string (hey, it works...)
Amp: 2011 Fender Frontman 65R

Sold (yes, I'm still kicking my self...)
Old amp: mid 80's Fender Super 60 tube amp 1x12 combo amp (I still miss this amp!)
Older amp: Vintage 70's Ampeg VT-22 tube amp (it caught fire! :shock: )
Electric guitar: late 80's Fender Telecaster (I still miss this guitar!)

Musical style: A little of everything, but mostly classic rock, blues, country rock, and the standard oldies tunes that everyone knows.
