INSTRUMENT DETAILS:

I use everyone else's instruments but I know they are top rate. But !!! I own a Gibson Les Paul TV Special which I bought off Tim Rogers when the Verys when on tour with them a few years back. It is yellow and it's a re-issue made in 1994 or something. But I only use it in rock n' roll bands - of which I'm forming one in Lismore with an old mate (playing all my own songs of course). We're called Grave Doll which is an anagram of Dave Groll (Groll isn't the right spelling though).
