Nice one Molly, I put those pickups in my Tele and love them, the twisted neck gives a lovely strat tone for leads!!

Nice buy Molly, good to see your family are derailing you too much and you still have your priorities in order
When I finally get round to getting myself a Tele, unless the stock ones are great I think I 'll be plumping for a set of Joe Barden pickups. Have been a fan of Gatton for ages so it seems like the logical decision

There is a hanger on my wall ready for that Tele when you return.
Tube amp and guitar tones straight from 1958… amazing how believable the sounds were back then, even without the modellers...

Fuck I'd have jumped on that. Luverly old piece of wood an all.Molly wrote:$15k price tag on that but it looked as cool as fuck. There was a young guy looking it over when I arrived. I assumed he'd just been signed. LOLDharmajester wrote:I like the look of the 52 goldtop sitting on your head.

I checked that out yesterday... I’m also in CA. Super nice, changed bridge, with better intonation. Am trying to find somewhere in LA where I can sell a kidney...Dharmajester wrote:I like the look of the 52 goldtop sitting on your head.
I must have tried out 20 acoustics yesterday, I’m looking for something special that’s already played in/opened up.
Despite all the old Martins and every conceivable Taylor being available, the best guitar by a fair margin was a well-used Eastman D acoustic. I would have bought it, but the bridge was lifting.
