I spot an opportunity for cunning guitar companies to sell "signature" models without having to pay the artists. Look out for the new Steve Via model from Ibanez any day now.

MM Stingo. Or it might be a MM Bongray. £1K + carriage.

I would also have accepted StingBong. -
I have just spent a pleasant morning with Dave Lunt and can confirm he is still very much firing on all cylinders. With me doing the heavy lifting, he gave my 1981 SVT a quick service, tested all the valves, replacing three of the preamp ones which were a bit noisy, and tweaked the bias settings to get rid of most of the hum. He's based in Macclesfield, Cheshire and I would heartily recommend him with the caveat that you might need to pitch in and help if your amp weighs 3 tons like mine!

Just spoke to Dave Lunt, he says he would like it to be known he has certainly not retired! Although he might change his mind tomorrow after looking at my SVT.

Just a vintage Fender.

Gibson EB2 1966 Cherry red with original case. Short Scale.

You might be right, I've been following a fair few on Reverb for a while and they hardly ever sell. That said, yours is a beauty and I came very close to buying it myself, but ended up with an EB2D (with the extra pickup). Sorry! -
It started as "Go on then, just a touch to accentuate my cheekbones."

Curious how this, and indeed an original Mutron III, will compare to the new Behringer B-Tron III coming out soon.

Just got home from seeing Cory Wong in Manchester. Absolutely floored by the support band Couch; not only the quality of the music, but the mix was flawless from the first note. Super tight and funky, awesome singer. Cory’s set was amazing too, but the mix wasn’t as good. At times I couldn’t hear his guitar, and the bass was pretty much inaudible all the time. Didn’t spoil the night though. Musicianship was off the scale. My son’s verdict at the end of Cory’s set: “That was insane!”

Oh, that VW. Makes more sense than what I was thinking.

We had an old Merc bus as our band transport. On the way to one gig the wipers packed up, so my job was to sit in the footwell with a pair of mole grips on the back of the wiper spindle, manually clearing the screen. We stopped to pick up a couple of bedraggled hitch hikers. The door opened, they took in the scene of me sitting on the floor with a pair of mole grips, and changed their minds about wanting a lift. In the rain.

I believe they're both Dimarzios, the neck pickup is a Model One.

My Squier Mike Dirnt. In best ebay classifieds tradition, it's 100% original. Apart from the refinish. And the extra pickup. And the scratchplate. And the Hipshot D-tuner.

Oof. I have no need for another Precision but I absolutely love that.

But you have to supply your own cape.
