Throwback

Post by faceless »

We always have old flames, the one that got away and we always wanted them back. But then, GAS has taken them away, and CASH is always KING.

Post your throwback gear here, let's reminisce and remember them how they used to tickle our fantasies...

Hmm I'm sorry about this one, but only cause of the silly price I sold it for back in the day. 1978 Telecaster with Lollar minibucker in the neck, probably got $1100 in the hand after eBay fees a few years back.

Possibly this. Bought it in Christchurch when I was 15. Paid $450. My first and only Gibson. Swapped it for a drum kit. :roll:
Not so much that I miss it as I'd be curious to play it now.
Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

To be honest, not much. One day I'd like to play one of these again and see if they're as good as I remember...

I don't have any such nostalgia issues.

The only guitars I have sold are a Jackson Fusion and an Epiphone SG. I sold them to a mate and can play them when I like.

But I don't, because I bought another Jackson Fusion and a couple of Gibson SGs.

The guitar I miss most is my Steiny M Series with Trans Trem. That neck was like playing on buttah, hot melted buttah. I never even had to tune the bloody thing. Could lock the trem in different tunings etc.... :(
