From Triabunna

My first pit bull kit has just arrived ...eventually I hope it will look and sound like a Gibson 125 , but at the moment I am somewhat overawed by the project.

Anyway I'm Steve Mars, an old bloke, nowadays an artist, but in the past (long past) used to be known as a drummer but have been an aspiring guitarist for just far too long.

Anyway, once I stop being scared I am looking forward to the project, but suspect I will be researching this site very extensively before I actually start.

Oh, and for those that don't know Triabunna is where you catch the ferry to Maria Island.

Hi Steve, welcome to the forum. Sounds like a great build and will be interested to read about all your experiences :). Just one question. Where is Maria Island?? :).

cheers,
Gav.

Welcome Steve, that's a very cool part of the world you come from! Don't hesitate in asking questions - there are some very clever people here who are incredibly helpful.

welcome to the forum Steve, presume you have an ES-5V kit ?
I will check out your location on google maps !

Start a build diary and ask any questions there. The forum will guide you to build a cool looking and sounding axe !

EDIT you are from Tassie, there are about 4 or 5 forum builds from Tassie now !

Yes!!! We are so taking over this site!!!
Ok, quick calculation time......
Population of Tasmania - Approx 500,000
Number of Taswegian Members on here - 5....ish
Percentage of Tasmanians that are members of PGBForums - 0.0001%
Conclusion........Yep, definitely taking over!!!:cool:

BTW, Welcome to the site!!
Love the East Coast area of Tassie.

Hey Zandit there are 3156 members on this forum so technically 5 Tassie members is 0.158% is a much better figure haha

Haha, yes, that is much better!!

Come on there must be more that 5...I met one in my gallery last week, up to his third build, and I have a mate outside Deloraine having issues with his first...so I wonder what the real number is.

haha Steve it's only a guess there maybe more than 5 Taswegians on the forum.
The number has certainly increased since Zandit joined

Hi Steve, welcome to the forum.
