I can't believe you're accusing Eric of inverse snobbery. Especially on a board where every piece of kit we own is downright spartan, and essential for our livelihoods. FWIW, I got the Mastery as part of a trade. But if I had bought it, I'd still have spent more on pedals. And not pedals that are sw...

Maybe it's an age thing? Was born in poo-brown guitar era, and love poo-brown guitars. Have had a Deluxe like the above (it was AWFUL), an SG, and this Mustang I traded a Vibrochamp to Reece for (which was so heavy it generated its own gravitational pull - Reece did warn me). http://farm4.static.fli...

Same seller was selling a 69 tele a couple of weeks ago, with images nicked from eBay.

We could be looking at WildkatGate II here.

Watched your video again before pulling the trigger, commented in such a way as to rekindle the lucrative Behringer deal.

Surely turn up in the works van under a blue light, go in in a full hazmat, come out with it disguised in a big bag. Boom, job done.

(bonus feature: also release Fran with a zimmer frame at the same time as a Captain Fran distraction).

Paging BENECOL I really really like them in mine, and there was a significant difference in just about every aspect. But I do hear mainly with my wallet. FWIW, I got mine by heavily flexing the Make Offer button on eBay, and emphasising that I would buy a pair if the price was right. Although I did...

These days seems to be a bit of a minefield, I've seen some places advertising '72 Telecaster thinline guards and the pickup routes are for standard humbuckers... There's definitely some variety between the thinline ones I've got, I suppose because there are original/MIJ/MIM/CIJ/MIA/Squier models f...

Can confirm that mint guards look great on a surf green guitar. But also that a gold guard is what this beauty needs.

Another vote for the Polara from me. I want one. I have the vibrato from the same range, and it's great.

At the risk of attracting ridicule and taking over from Freddy in the "worst Tele judgement" stakes, I've always half fancied the sunburst Classic Vibe one just for the Frusciantes. No ridicule from this judgmental guy: this is one of the few guitars (see also: Firebirds, for some reason ...
