Hello from Spadz
Hello everyone,
I'm from a small town near Montreal. I own and play keyboards and guitar.
I've owned a '87 black and white Squier Stratocaster since 1992 and I recently purchased an Orange 5129, with a transparent pick guard which would make it from the first years of making.
That's pretty much it!
Thanks
Spadz

welcome to gretsch-talk, Spadz. make yourself at home. being from Louisiana, the name of your small town is easy for me to pronounce. it's a very common last name in "dear ol' Luzianne".

Welcome aboard! Have a seat! This is a cool site. Just one question: Are you now, or have you ever been Austrailian? It's totally cool if you are, we're just having a helluva time keeping count of late. Kinda nice having a Canadian at the door. Entre vouz! I think they're planning a New York area Gretsch together soon. You might want to check it out.

Welcome, Spadz. You will enjoy it here. Great site. Good people. Cool guitars. Much knowledge and a pretty good sound track now and then.

Bonjour Spadz, nice to have you hear at Gretsch-Talk. Lots of us Canadians here but were outnumbered by our Aussie and American friends. Don't tell anybody
Oh ya, the rule around here is "without pics, it never happened." For the purposes of our national credibility, please post pics as soon as possible so we can see your guitars. Merci bien! |

Thanks everyone! I took time to answer because I thought I was to get emails that my thread got answers... I'll have to check the settings.
I'll takes pictures (while my guitars are quite ordinary!) and post 'em here.
Thanks again, it's a very warm welcome!

Good day to you too!
Is there a particular reason why so much concentration of Americans and Australians in this forum? |

It's a conspiracy so we Canadians don't buy up all the Gretsch's. Shhhh... |
