guitar string ...

Boo!
No posting dried pasta pics in a guitar thread.
I thought the inside of the string was a single-strand filament like the old gut used to string 70's wooden tennis racquets ... and I was wrong ...

The 6262 is essentially a poor man's version of a 6505+. I used to have a 5150 and it was a beast (not like I gotta tell you that). I sold it when I moved to the lower 48. I would love to have another, but have you seen the prices on them these days? Screw that. So I went with the Bugera. I'll probably run a TS-9 up front to tighten things up and call it good.
Bugera is a fairly recent brand, focused towards those without a ginormous budget. The originals were plagued with issues, as with pretty much anything new, but they have worked out a lot of the kinks. You gotta respect the tone they have for the price. I was debating between the 6262 and the 333. The 333 is based off of the XXX and has a few more features and better cleans, but it just doesn't have quite the tone I wanted, although I am sure I could have found some usable tones. I prefer the extra balls and mid range of the 6262. The 333 seemed a bit flat and fizzy.
my dads 1957J45 Gibson acoustic guitar , he bought it new in 1957 for $300 , sweet sounding guitar , he played the shit out of this sweetheart , thats the only wear . he use to write music and give steel and acoustic lessons down at the music shop , which was known to attract a couple of bigger names back then to have jam sessions when they came to livingston county pheasant hunting . he always wanted me to play but i ended up a drummer . we had enough guitarist in the family . REST IN PEACE POPS !

Sweet!
And looks to have original Kluson's.
That's a stone blues machine.
I could drop some panties riffing on that guitar!
yep , she's all original ! nothing changed or added as was the day he bought it . he always told me to take care of it when he was alive someday it'll be worth some money , i still see the ol' fellow ( his friend ) who had the music shop back then , he's still around doesn't move well , but still kicking . he's about 85 now . he's asks me about the guitar when i see him .texas blues said:
I am far more a piano/keyboard/French horn player than I am a guitar player.
but I was gifted some money for a guitar from a family member who has since passed on, so I keep this guitar in her memory. One day I want to learn more of the basics of guitar playing so I can use this guitar like it was meant to be used.
I included a picture of my keyboard..sorry if this is a guitar thread. lol. But like I said, when it comes to playing...

Morugawelder, I would be afraid to even touch that guitar. A family heirloom like that deserves to be in a climate controlled glass case, in my opinion. Too valueable.
Keybrdkid, I'm really digging the finish on that Martin! Shiny is overrated. I've always wanted to learn some keyboards/piano. They can add so much depth, power and emotion to music. Highly underrated instruments these days.

I am going to order one of these tomorrow. Bugera 6262...
Hard to believe he uses no post EQ or anything! Scary tone out of that beast.

ORDERED!!! Oh boy, am I going to tick off the neighbors with this thing!
I forgot that I have the combo of this 2 x 12. Eurotubed. It's freaking loud!!! I wish they did a built in attenuator like they did with some of their models. Goes to the point where you can drown out your drummer. Too bad you can't switch the bright/clean with the footpedal
Holy Crap! This is a steal!!!! http://www.musiciansfriend.com/amplifiers-effects/bugera-6262-120w-2-channel-tube-guitar-amp-head?cntry=us&source=3WWRWXGP&gclid=CKOrvYiVkMQCFU1ffgodRaYAAA&kwid=productads-plaid^82170943587-sku^H85849000000000@ADL4MF-adType^PLA-device^c-adid^51870555867
$249 for the head???? STEAL OF THE CENTURY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh yeah, 120w tube will tick off the neighbors fairly efficiently. My main amp was an original 5150 for many years (6262 is basically a clone of the 5150). I had no problem drowning out our drummer (the whole band if I chose). Eventually I want to pick up an attenuator for this bad boy.
I was not familiar with them until here recently. I knew the name and I knew they sounded good, but that was it. I googled them and saw them on Musicians Friend for $249 and I jumped on it. Where else are you going to get a tube head with that kind of tone for anywhere close to that, even used?!
New pedal board.
Tweed!!!
Now I can be one of the cool kids too!
