Now - I seem to remember a thread not very long ago when someone (he who shall not be named, Dave...) was claiming that his GAS was cured and that he would not be acquiring anything else in the near future...

Read the first post again fella  ;)  This was an old agreement that was made!  It's not new GAS...

As the other thread says, I LOVED Ian's 50s Top Bound Esquire so much that I offered to buy it should he ever want to sell it.  Much sooner than I was expecting(!) that opportunity arose when Ian found a Strat he liked the look of at a dealer.  A complicated three-way trade deal then ensued and I ended up with his Esquire, the dealer ended up with my maple top McCarty and Ian got a Strat.  Everyone's happy  :D

were sells them

Sounds Great

They don't have any in stock though - looks like they get one every couple of months or so.  So you're looking at a custom order.
BKPs I've Got:  RR, BKP-91, ITs, VHII, CS set, Emeralds
BKPs I Had:  RY+Abraxas, Crawlers, BD+SM

As Philly says.  They got a few in a while back, now only get the odd one from time to time.  Dennis Fano doesn't make that many really...

I thought they were your enemy? There was one shop you didn't get on with anyway.

It's all looking just a touch too blue for my tastes (I seem to have a black theme, and a red theme building up at my place...), but each of those on their own look mighty purdey...

Glad you guys were able to get it sorted - I hadn't realised the rosewood neck PRS was part of the plan, sounds like an eminently sensible plan all round... nice one :D

I was being sarcastic. its only one dude there i have an issue with. still! yes i refuse to let it drop.
I do however fancy playing a fano. I was looking at firebird-esque shapes. obviously firebirds, RD's, some otherstuff.
I was also looking at set neck strats and tele's. i dunno. mucking about.
Fano's look cool but im not sure P90's

:lol: sorry. Internet sarcasm and all..

Maybe you should go in there to try a Fano out, see how they are doing and if the same fellow still works there ;)

More blue stuff

What is the view out there - does this work in blue?



And it is the real colour!

I am GASSING for a decent one but not sure about the blue... (I sold one a couple of weeks back because the pups were non original but still on the hunt)

I saw a Vintage White/5-ply binding/Gold Hardware SG-something000 in a local guitar shop, kind of Seventies Les Paul Custom as an SG-2000 type of thing, which I thought was stunning. I think it was a reissue, though.
