NZGuitars.com : Filling you with GAS since 2003

Congrats! Had been watching that one for a while. The one thing I like with relics is the non-need to be precious with them, probably not going to be an “oh shit” moment when it gets its first knock or ding Oh and thanks for the reminder I need to get a Goldtop back in my stable. Enjoy :) Yeh but f...
