I keep meaning to amass a stupendously huge collection of guitars but my dole money doesn't stretch to it.

awww

neither did mine... now i have a job and still cant afford to buy guitars

Exactly.

I'm fucked either way so I'm not going to work so I can be skint. It's not as if you actually need more than two guitars but I'm suffering from Gear-Acquisition Syndrome just now. Well, my local guitar shop just closed and eBay is so great that I keep just buying stuff, like six dozen picks and 20 sets of strings 'just incase'.

Right yeah, reviving this thread as i have been giving some though about a nice SG Special.

Neither of those sites work anymore though.

WHAT?!

Samin.cn was working just th'other day too. I knew it'd only be a matter of time before 'they' clamped down on this kind of thing. No doubt there are other sites, but the samin.cn one was recommended to me by a guy who had bought four guitars off them.

It's silly really. I get why people wouldn't want those sites up: obviously the lay Gibson-buyer could be tricked into buying a Chinese knock-off, but if you're buying a Gibson (they usually cost lots of money) you'd think you'd do a fair bit of research. Billiams.

It is just Billy,

But yeah i have been scouting about, and i've also asked Ben to have a chat with his dad about one of the places.

So if and when i find one i'll let all you know.

Billiam wasn't a reference to you; billiam is a put-down I use for silly people. It's derived from the word 'dil' which, in turn, comes from 'sil'(ly).

Well how was i supposed to know that?

You weren't, hence why I subsequently informed you.

You're such a toilet.

God i can't be bothered to look at the moment.
