Gretsch is soon to bring out a Chris Cheney White Falcon Sig guitar. The first signiture guitar for any Australian built by Gretsch. While i can't find pictures to back it up, mods include TV Jones Pickups and ebony-based Adjusto-Matic bridge, Deluxe Sperzel Locking Tuners (or so it says in this months rolling stone). While i don't think the living end is a great band personally, i've seen them live a couple of times and they put on an absolutely awesome show - and cheney's playing live is exceptional.

Word on the street is that it's not officially out till august sometime.
I was reading about this the other day. It sounds magnificent. And i agree, Cheney is awesome.

I am responsible, I admit it !!

Actually, I've not mentioned this before, but Lola was PLEKed and set-up by Charlie Charndler in London, who does David Gilmour's guitars, so she plays like butter. The guy I bought her from is a fire-fighter there, and spared no expense in getting her set up perfectly.
I did pay quite a lot for her too, as she is a superior guitar in every way.

It was love at first sight for me. Like i have already said, that is my dream guitar, it's just beautiful. It's good to see you really appreciate her lucy, and you play her. So awesome.

sounds a lot like a 335, but much more playable, cooler looking

Interesting auctions. I'm not sure how the seller of the first one manged to get 23 years as the age og the wood. My math makes 1995 - 2008 13 years. Nice top though. I would probably call Vic Da Pra and buy a 2007 one first though. They had some mighty tops last year, and great tones.
The other one looks like an honest auction. The market is sftening a lot on these things, though premium tops will always bring a higher price.

Thunderbirds are definitely cool basses. Good choice.

Forgot to add this baby to my list:

If we are talking Bass, then it's a Non Reverse Thunderbird.

They just need to do a reissue of the non reversed style for once.

I realllly want a Telecaster Plus. Thinking of getting the parts from Warmoth and making a custom Tele Plus, but will have to see if I can afford it.
