  1. Classy Tele that. Reminds me of some of the instruments built by Wormwood.
  2. I have long scale Cobalts on my Mustang. It’s only the E string that wraps beyond the silk (doesn’t seem to be a problem). They feel and sound great (I have them on all but 1 of my basses).
  3. He's nothing if not consistent. In my teens, I was a massive Clapton fan, but in the last couple of decades (at least) I’ve felt he’s needed a slap (more likely several). I know he’s had personal tragedy and I wouldn’t wish that on anyone, but to read his autobiography or listen to him speak, you’d never think he’s one of the most famous and successful guitar players ever.
  4. Show Don’t Tell - Rush
  5. All of this talk of trombones and rolled pizzas are blatantly euphemisms for the Camberwell Carrot (other terms are available). Substances of a questionable nature are squarely in the remit of the DoI, having already set up the necessary import/export avenues to facilitate the flow of the required product.
  6. Let’s Go Crazy - Prince
  7. Has anybody got hold of one of these yet? If so, any chance of letting us know the weight, please?
  8. Protection Racket cases have moveable (and customisable if you want to unzip and reshape) pads that Velcro to the interior. EDIT: Not actually a hard case, but very, very well padded and solid.
  9. Lollipop tuners - nice. Opting for the 34" scale I see. Very pretty that. The only thing I find visually challenging about the Jake C is the rounded off end of the pickguard by the jack socket; my eye expects to see a point there.
  10. A dangerous place. 😂
  11. No love for the James Tyler design? Can’t say I’m surprised.
  12. The Ric and P are very pleasing to my eye.
  13. Ooh, quite teal, I approve. The covers and knobs look very nice in situ, the finish makes the difference in cream tone much less obvious.
  14. Looks like it’s contoured front and back (forearm & belly).
  15. The ‘71 back in action - nice.
  16. I dunno enough about them, I’m afraid. I owned and sold a well used, refinished ‘63, but that’s as far as my expertise goes. All I really know is that prices for vintage gear seems to have gone up quite a bit since I sold mine (typical! 😂).
  17. Ooh, that’s a nice one. Shame about the geographical problem.
  18. Those of us quoting our old build times (mine were 10 & 12 weeks I think) are pre the B word, Suez and Covid. Sadly, it’s a different world now.
  19. Just found the thread at the end of my new posts stream.
  20. Is the Aerodyne new too?
  21. That’s weird, when I first saw the additional stains it started at the “got bored” selection.
