Have no fear Ian - it'll head out to woo the crowds at the next Doppelganger gig in December!

Assuming the deal takes place of course - getting ahead of myself there  :oops:

Would love to see/hear it in actiopn. Vids are a must.

I'm also getting ahead of myself now!

On the subject of those Custom Shop Esquires, anyone seen these clips? 

I think some of us, Dave especially, are fans of this chap....

The Esquire now belongs to Dave. I have a strat. We are both happy.

I'm sure Dave will start a new esquire thread soon!

And Philly - those clips are good but what is going on with Jimmy Vaughans sound on the seocnd clip, it's pretty awful. And I've just bought a strat  :o

I hadn't seen those Billy Gibbons clips before, good to see the Rev jamming some blues tunes on the CS Esquire, sounded pretty good to me.

Ian - hope you post pics of your new strat, and hope Twinfan is happy with the Esquire ;)

Errrrm? Yeah... Really... that friendship is LOADS more impressive that the sheer brilliance of Billy G as a player, multi platinum artist & all round tone god  :?

I despair sometimes, I really do...  :P

I thought you stated that you were GAS free about a month ago, Twinfan. Didn't seem to last that long  :P

I did state that yes, and if Ian's specific guitar hadn't come up for sale I wouldn't have been buying anything....

Billy Gibbons and Rory were "buddies" too (inasmuch as anyone was a buddy of Rory) - RG helped ZZ Top out with a US support slot early in the 70s and ZZ top returned the favour some years later...

Interestingly... Mr Gerry McAvoy (Rory's bassist) is convinced that the later "beards" were inspired by Mr Tom O'Driscoll's appearance (RG tech, road manager, etc) on the early RG tour...


NEway big congrats to Ian & Dave - glad it worked out as planned :D

I'm now seeing I'm not the first on the whole GAS subject. Well, I must congratulate you with´what seems like a really nice guitar, Twinfan. I hope you enjoy it  :D

Anyone want 50p on Dave getting another guitar before 2009 is out?
