The Dimension I tried was ace! Yolanda Charles made hers sing too.

To my mind, the F-Trap just seems to be becoming more and more conspicuous by the year. I get it - some players want to feel a part of the brand and its incredible legacy, some want to own and trade collector's pieces and some just don't know what else is out there because their local shop has such a poor range of stock. In my experience, Fenders are sometimes excellent, often fine and sometimes terrible; I don't think they're consistent enough and I'd certainly not buy one sight unseen. But the prices are astonishing, all for fewer options and often sketchier QC than the multitude of available equivalents. The company seems to actively avoid innovation and puts very little effort into marketing new products and yet the trap still works, possibly better than ever. The power of strong branding, eh...

Yours looks much better!

Jeez.

Excellent choices! Good on you for taking the plunge and for supporting your daughter so proactively too. There's a near-infinite supply of knowledge and good will to share on here so don't hesitate to ask questions as you venture down the various rabbit holes that have ensnared us all. Best of luck with everything and, most of all, enjoy!

How have the taxes and import duty worked out for you if you've recently taken delivery of a Maruszczyk build from Public-Peace? Have the logistics been easy enough too? TIA, Tobie

Cheers mate - much appreciated!

Has anyone got any ideas on this? TIA, Tobie

Anyone had any joy getting some Whitney/Chaka 80s pop synth sounds out of this? Cheers, Tobie
