....so what do these gear fests entail? Is it mostly mutual masturbation, or do you actually get to make some noise aswell? If all goes to plan, I will be friendless by then due to a move to Dunedin, so could be keen. :lol:

Link to JBs video of the last one might help explain it?
If you don’t like chatting about Guitar gear you will most likely be bored shitless! If you like turning up amps, chatting gear and some light hearted banter you might enjoy yourself.

In that video I have three guitars, two amps (if you count the one I bought on the day), and a cab. I've since sold every bit of it... LOL.

I really deserve the piss takes, eh?
