    Maybe we can jam down at the treatment center!

    Just got it this morning:

    Great sounding through the Deluxe. This may become one of my favorites in my collection.

    Surf's up! :D

    switches are fun. i never see any of those old cool japanese guitars around here, righty or lefty.



    i'm scouring now for a way to wire mustang switches so that the one slider selects neck/both/bridge and the second selects series/parallel/parallel(out of phase) for when both pups are on.

    hmmmmm. probably can't be done.


    i can't believe i bought another guitar. i'm going to be in trouble.

    That's what this one does. I think! :) One switch for each pickup, then a power switch that seems to put them in series somehow then it can blend them with one of the pots.
    It's sort of like Godzilla meets Blender Pots. :D
    I'll keep a lookout for a lefty, because I do run into these, and they are hidden gems,,, then I won't tell you about it! :)


    Haha, Buru! You saw the guitar room! Or rooms, I guess. I fixed a few of those up and sold them, too. Gave a few away, also.

    I sympathize with you completely, exhausted.

    Last week my trigger finger hit the bid button on a Fender Deluxe Reverb for $200, which I couldn't afford even if I did win. But the whole time I was thinking "There are no bids! What a steal this would be if I won!"

    Baaaaaaad mentality.

    i commit my sins in the name of rarity when i do these things. sunburst mustang. never see those. most of the lefties are blue and cream. so it's unique, therefore, i buy it. stupid. but i'll probably not see another one for a long time. it's like my rickenbacker. few and far between and you have to strike when you see them.

    i paid about half what lefty specialty shops want for them. and even less than what the right handed one i bought my son cost me.

    i have the money but i know i'll get a firm eyeroll because there's no way i should be spending so much on this. oh well. i'm a bit of a collector.

    yeah but it's absolutely gorgeous, and there aren't many at all.
    My Girlfriend said to me..."How many guitars do you need?" and I replied...."How many pairs of shoes do you need?" She got really quiet.

    it's just like the righty one from the 70s that i used to have.
  • Holy shit thats amazing!
