Title: Fender TC-90
Post by: headtheball on August 10, 2008, 05:34:25 PM

Stumbled upon one of these in my LGS for not an awful lot of money. Has anyone any experience of them at all.

Superficially, it looks like the ideal backup for my Eggle, but I was hoping to find out if there were any horror stories in there first.

Looks and sounds good in that clip.

Even Roo would admit that...

(probably).

-EDIT-

Just had a quick look around and it seems to be discontinued everywhere...

Not sure if this is old news. I don't see them on the Fender site...

Not watched the video for anything other that to skip to 1 min and see the guitar. Not having the top cutaway "in tact" certainly improves things, but it could use a) not having f-holes and b) a good headstock.

But I will admit that it's DEFINITELY an improvement!! :)

I'm GAS'ing for one of those JA-90's. 

There's a thread over on the Jimmy End World forum about it
