      +jesus cerezuela Met him whilst working for Fender, he wanted to try a vintage tele, he didn't want to plug te guitar in because he didn't want people to hear him! Very shy..joked about him using a Floyd Rose in the future! Mind you it was an exhibition hall. Lovely bloke...oh he didn't buy it!

      jesus cerezuela I met him once in a pub in Camden in about 2001 and he was absolutely out of his mind drunk. He kept hugging my friend Larry after he gave him a copy of his record.

    The thing with Graham is that despite throwing theory and melodic solos out the window in favour of an art house approach, he is none the less quite a technically accomplished guitar player.

    For all you guitarists out there... is this just a commercial for Orange amps?? Orange was a semi obscure amp company in the 70's. The re-boot although decent, is just some commercial bullshit. It's not some vintage amp company. It's an early 2000's revival of an old brand. It's kinda cheesy and dumb.
