and it's located at a shop that is a 20 minute drive from your place!

I quite like the look of it although think that Fenders look better in blue. Actually, what is the difference between Lake Placid Blue and Pelham Blue?

EDIT - just clicked on the link and am almost tempted by that price. If only my boiler hadn't gone t!ts up last week.

It's a Junior, so I like it!  And I like the colour too.  :D

But.....

Slim taper neck.  :(

And I'm still very dubious about that "obeche" fingerboard.  It's not obeche - or not obeche asI know it - so what the hell is it?  I suppose ultimately it doesn't really matter.

I'd be interested to know what you think if you try it out, Dave.

i've seen these too, and thought "hmm, nice..."  there's also a special in the same colour with two humbuckers.  i think i'd prefer two P90's though

That colour is very nice. I'd prefer a special with two pickups, but this guitar oozes rock.

Can you buy a TV yellow one with a bigger neck instead?
I'd be more likely to go for one of them in Seconds Out

Cruel.

Anyway, the bigger neck one only comes in sunburst, cherry and white....

Cheeky buggers the lot of you!

I might have to check one out just to how shoddily built they are for that price...
