I don't own this anymore (it was just a bit less lively than my other guitars, and I hate tremolos I rediscovered) but it's the only gold top with tortoise I've ever seen.

I think that picture shows why we've never seen that combo.

The gold/tortoise isn't favorite but I don't think it looks BAD...

As for the Jaguar with the Bigsby, that's top on my list of "next projects"... with a few changes...

 

[tfarny]

Wow thanks for the hate guys!

Hey I think that Strat looks great!  :icon_thumright:

 

[Mor Paul]

I think it looks fine. Not what I would choose, but not bad.

 

[Super Turbo Deluxe Custom]

I like it, but not something I'd choose for myself.

Sorry Tim - I like you, but tortoiseshell pickguards always, with no exception, ruin everything they are attached to.

agreed, however I can make an exception for Tonar's thinline... that looked pretty good!

 

[tfarny]

OK, I'm done crying now you can go back to hating on my poor already sold goldie!  :icon_thumright: Don't be surprised when I flame (not literally, don't worry) your next knurled spalt coffee table guitar though.  :toothy12: :toothy12:

stop crying! I already said that your walnut thinline is one of my favorites here.. that should compensate for not liking tortoise!

I was actually thinking about selling that body and neck - it seems like a real shame, but the standard thin neck just doesn't work for me anymore at all, and the pickups I think really would benefit from thicker strings and neck on that particular axe. Hard to explain, it's one of those things with a custom ordered guitar I guess.
I might try to sell the body and neck and use the pups / bridge on a new carved top tele with a 59 neck.

 

[m4rk0]

that is a shame, but a carved top tele would be nice too!

I feel that way about the Pearloid ones.  Atleast the Tortoise has a nostalgic, vintage vibe.  To me anyway.

Same here.
