Now,

Why would I want to show myself and scare everyone?...

That guitar is an Epiphone 335 Dot.
I don't have my Strat anymore, but still have a Telecaster.

Who cares mate..

Anyhow, I don't take playing very seriously anymore - it's just a hobby these days. Sometimes I don't touch them for a couple of months..

Trouble with that though, is it's very easy to forget how to play a track!
I used to be able to play for example Sultans of Swing note for note. I've probably forgotten half of it now, and would maybe take a day or two to re-learn and remember it!

Re: Some Bowie...quick improvisation

Not as rusty as me. I haven't played for over 30 years but bought myself a Strat copy which I am struggling with tbh. It's gradually coming back but I can't believe that I used to play certain things that I cannot manage now. Mind you, I did have a Pukka Les Paul custom back then which was a superb guitar so I blame my tools.
