They certainly sound good!
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.

Jesus they look more authentic and sound better than the Eastwood stuff, still mahogany body but hey I hope they make those parts available. The Goldfoils look a bit meh, but those Supro single coil Vistatone pups sound great.

Forgot to add to my build thread but before christmas got a repro Supro bridge from a guy in France for US$59 free shipping and it is the bees knees.
