Good to have you here!

The fact that you say it gets better after a while leads me to think that it's a technique problem. If you aren't holding the string down with enough pressure, you will get buzzing (be careful not to press to hard, or the note will sound sharp).

Is it a big curly wig?

I was in the guitar shop last week and was going try a couple of acoustics, but there was another guy in, playing and he was excellent, so i just couldn't do it.

There's only about £25 difference between the two and you can always turn the mg30gfx, so I would probably go with that.

I bought the LT25 recently. It's great for home playing. I haven't had the volume up high, but suspect that it could be used in very small venues for gigging. It has 30 built-in profiles, with another 20 or so "hidden" profiles. It has about 25 empty profiles that you can customise. There are a couple of built-in profiles that I really like when playing my Ibanez and Harley Benton.

Are you able to try them both?

I can't say I've ever heard of them.

Welcome!

I'm willing to bet that almost no one in the audience will be able to tell the difference.

I got a chord-a-day calendar,. What did everyone else get?

Would you get one of those for under £300? You might even struggle to get one second-hand, especially Epiphone.

Natural marks like that add character.

Welcome to the site Walks. I don't know much about Les Paul style guitars, but you can get this one that's well within your budget Harley Benton SC-Custom II SPAF – Thomann UK You'll find loads of LP style guitars on there for less than £300.

I wouldn't say I love it, but I do really like it. For me, it's the portability. I have a guitar lesson after work once a week and can sit in the car for half an hour beforehand and practise. It sounds decent enough too. Obviously it's not going to be as loud or full sounding as a larger amp, but it's good enough for my needs.

Welcome!

Oh no, that's a pity.

I watched your latest video last night and, as Fatboy Slim said, "you've come a long way, baby".

Always good to plug a shop if they've given good service, as we are usually quick to let everyone know if we've had bad service.

Welcome!

Welcome to the forum.

Lovely guitar. Health to play. What shop was it?

I've a funny feeling it was recorded on either a Les Paul, or a 355, or something else "Gibson-y", so the AS-73 would be closer to that kind of thing.

Welcome!
