Lole, park me here too.
I do love the headstock plate thang on these new ones though.. although I realise they are probably period rather than new?
These always make me think of this:

sadly, i think this is true. that bridge will be lost to history and bl00z lawyers. _________________Check out Runway Runaway by Saturday's Child

One of these days I’m going to commission a machine shop to make me a run of 60’s styled Duo-Sonic/Musicmaster bridges. _________________

Just buy the tornado bridge and drill 3 extra holes in it. It takes 5 minutes

Amazing move Noirie. The more I look at that white Crestwood, the more I like it.

Sweet. Am jealous.
Back to the original topic for a moment, I’d like a Marauder II. Fender have re-released pretty much everything else over the last few years but this would be the icing on the cake for me. They made a Custom Shop HH version a while back but a Squier CV SSS one would be killer. _________________

Looks like guitars cartoonists draw. Graceless and ill dimensioned in every way.
