GAS Alert!!!!

I love it! Not so happy about slogans on guitars though...

I also love it (that color is SWEET, and the gold hardware doesn't bother me this time for some reason).

Also, I'm all for slogans on guitars:

For Billy, I will make an exception

 

[AutoBat]

yes, it's got a floyd.

 

[bagman67]

yes, it's got a floyd.

This one doesn't, but wouldn't matter if it did:

The guy in the top picture would approve of the guy in the bottom picture, and vice versa, I think.

 

[Nando Vallart]

For Billy, I will make an exception

Who is the guy?

 

[AprioriMark]

For Billy, I will make an exception

Who is the guy?

I think he meant Woodie Guthrie, who is, by the way, the man.

-Mark

 

[kboman]

I had him confused with Billy Bragg, doesn't he do slogans too?

Yep.

Billy Bragg is also the man. Or a bit of a hypocrite, depending on who you ask (because of that whole "go working man! I'll just live in this huge mansion over here" thing). Whatever. I just like the tunes.

... and I got a thing for orange.  :toothy10:

Thanks W for putting that color in the builder. I think I'll order soon.  :hello2:

you were born one country too far to the north!

 

[Cagey]

I like both those colors, but the black binding makes the orange one look a lot like a halloween decoration. Of course, the CBS headstock has got to go. It's not only out of proportion to everything, it's a reminder of the worst period in Fender's history. You see that, and you're afraid to even look at the rest of the guitar.

[AutoBat]

I'm a big fan of Jazmasters and the asymmetricals, but I have to say no to this.

 

[swarfrat]

careful now, that's somebody here's baby. I don't like the reverse headstock, but hardtail rear routed jazzmaster I can like.

I don't have the cojones, but Candy Tangerine top, Ivoroid binding, and Candy Turquoise back with 5A Birdseye neck and fretboard...oh mama!

Pretty close.... :dontknow:

 

[Super Turbo Deluxe Custom]

Not even close.  Ivoroid, not Pearloid binding.  That's not a solid finish, and we can't see the back.

Not even close.  Ivoroid, not Pearloid binding.  That's not a solid finish, and we can't see the back.

Don't be so anal.... :icon_biggrin:

Yeah - I'm not really sure about the binding yet. But white just seems to make it too cartoonishesque (yep that's a word)  :laughing7:

CBS headstock rules. And I'm too polite to express what I mean of Fenders history anyway  :evil4:

People are always afraid of my guitars ... they always run away when I start to play them.  :toothy11:

I could have done that. But I've already got a CT strat. I wouldn't run the risk of grabbing the wrong guitar ...  :icon_scratch:

"Right, that's it. This will be the last one. This will be the last guitar I put together. This is too expensive and I have no more room, I can't keep doing this."
