You're getting really good at this eh ? Thats is awesome.
Tube amp and guitar tones straight from 1958… amazing how believable the sounds were back then, even without the modellers...

Since we have recently established the going rate for a forum-made guitar, I’m happy to offer you $500, just let me know your bank deets. :-)


More seriously, that is spectacular. Wow, there are some talented people on this forum.
