Michael Palm resonator; Gibson J-50 (1951); Goya classical (1966); Gibson nylon (1963); Kim Hancock archtop; Fender Stratocaster (early 60's).
The resonator and archtop are made by local Brisbane luthiers. The Strat I bought in London in 1973 ... it was setup by Seymour Duncan, who was the guitar tech for Fender Soundhouse at the time . The Gibson J-50 I bought for $150 in a Montreal pawn shop in 1969, the Gibson nylon I bought in Sydney Australia after not being able to put it down in the shop and the Goya was my first 'good' guitar ... it's seen a bit of wear and tear after spending some years with my kids.

Download the PDF of the 'Guitar Chord Slide Rule', print it out, fold it together and you'll have at your disposal a very neat tool that will not only show you all the positions for the main flavors of chords, but will also teach you a very important lesson about how the guitar works... It consists of a folded sleeve and six double sided inserts, instructions for cutting it out and folding it together are included with the PDF ... it's very simple to do, and if you botch it, you can simply print it out again!
