Except for the fact that winter's coming  :(

Trussart?  Greco Zemaitis?  Duesenberg?

I'll never be free from GAS  :(
If I had the cash I'd have 20-30 Teles (my house would be like the finial level of hell for Roo!), not counting all the other builds I like  :oops:

I'm all humbuckered out, so there's no need for the Zematis.  My Modern Eagle is #1 for 'bucker duties, closely followed by my Korina McCarty.

I tried a Doozie and thought they felt a bit insubstantial.  Not sure what I'd use it for either.

Trussarts are cool, but £3k?  Not sure they're worth that to me.

Yeah, I saw that one Ian.  It's still bloody expensive though, sale or no sale.

I won't stand in your way.  :wink:

As much as I would love to get it Philly I just can't justify that price tag. Perhaps if it doesn't go at that price in the sale they may aswell it for cheaper. Somehow I doubt it!

I don't like the GV sale, it seems a bit pointless to me but I guess some people will see £100 less as a great deal.

There's no way of knowing if it really is original these days. Unless it's been from a trustworthy one owner I'm afraid. There were something like a 1000 strats made in 54 - do a search on GBase and you'll find several thousand originals for sale. Numbers probably aren't perfect but in the right ballpark  :?

Not being a dick, just saying.
