NOS Lipstick pickups built well over a decade ago

I've always wanted a Dano but been holding out for that free bag of candy and 3 follow-up phone calls.

If you buy an NOS, is your heart still filled with hate?

My wife bought me a tuner from Sweetwater about 6 years ago. She still gets follow up emails from her "sales rep" Ben Porter.

We know the dude's name. That's how many emails there have been.

Mine's called Andy, he's a lovely chap but I need some space.

He actually called once to say a cable I'd ordered was out of stock so if I didn't mind the longer version he'd give it to me for the shorter one's price, I shouldn't rag on this service outright, it just occurs more than necessary.

At least it's better than the stupid daily emails Jaime sends me from Hello Music: "Celebrate with Telebration!" No, I don't think I will Jaime.

It's just the pickups that are NOS, so the pickups don't directly support discrimination towards gay people, but they probably would if you asked them

On the subject of Sweetwater, the contrast provided by this guys' t-shirt made me think was just wearing the waistcoat and suffocating

Those are also not available yet, so you have to pay a reserve on the hate.

Lol for like 100 more dollars you can get a vintage Silvertone dano with og lipsticks. These would be good beaters to trash so my silvertone stays fresh though. Hmm.

I never get random calls or emails from my Sweetwater sales guy (Brendan). The only time I hear from him is when I order from him and he's never been pushy or sales-y. I just wish they would pick up Catalinbread and Earthquaker.

They need to bring back the dano pro so bad. I'd snap up a used one in a second.
