NGD: It's "Blue"

Hi everyone :slightly_smiling_face:

Time for me to also contribute in this section and share my joy and excitement about my new guitar with you all.

I’d like to introduce you to “Blue”, a replica of Billie Joe Armstrong’s iconic and legendary signature guitar.
I’m a long-time fan of Green Day, and this guitar finally made a dream come true.
We already had tons of fun together :grinning_face: :guitar:

Thank you JustinGuitar for teaching me how to play so many of my favourite songs! :sunflower:

Cheers
Gunhild :lady_beetle:

Would love to hear some demo. :slight_smile:

Enjoy. Just need to replace that bridge single coil with a Seymour Duncan humbucker for some early Green Day tones now.

Hello Mark, thanks a lot for your kind words.
Oh yes, it was a very happy New Guitar (Green) Day for sure :grinning_face:

@franzek
Hallo Franz, thank you for your kind wishes :slightly_smiling_face:
Yes, it’s time to rock :100:
And yes, “Blue” is custom made, but not by me. I’ve bought her “preloved”.
She is not authentic in every detail, pickups are not correct, the colour is slightly different, but she is a fine instrument and a lot of fun to play :guitar:

Liebe Grüße aus Dortmund :grinning_face:

@GrytPipe
Hello, I found “Blue” online and bought her from a fellow fan of Green Day in GB. Very happy that the courier had been careful, and so she arrived in perfect condition here in Germany :sweat_smile:

@Helen0609
Hallo Andrea, thank you so much :grinning_face:
Yes, playing and practicing is even more fun now :guitar:

Liebe Grüße aus Dortmund :grinning_face:

@SDKissFan
Hello Jeff, thanks for your kind words. Oh yes, I can hear her scream, and I hope there will be more songs than just one :grinning_face:
Have you seen Green Day live in San Diego last year? I had been lucky to see them in Berlin a few weeks earlier. What an incredible show :100: :guitar: :party_popper:

Hallo was lauft? Ja Ich habe Green Day hier in San Diego lletztes Jahr. I agree it was an amazing show and they played nonstop all night. Berlin is one city I wanted to visit but never got the chance to. I lived near Kaiserslautern for 3 years a long time ago. Ich wunsche vile vergnugen mit Blau😎

Hello Michal, thank you very much :slightly_smiling_face:
Oh yeah, the metronome … have to admit that I’m still not a huge fan of this relentless practice buddy :sweat_smile:
But I like to play along to the original songs. I’m hoping that this keeps me in time :wink:
