Long awaited Feline 20th anniversary model unleashed

[FELINEGUITARS]

OK - to put the raffle/sweepstake bit of the conversation to rest - I phoned the gambling commission to get proper advice:

We can't do it as a raffle without it being gambling - unless all thew money goes to a good cause and the prize has to be under £50.

We could do the "buy a certain product from us and you'll be entered into a free prize draw" type scenario because you are being entered FREE into the draw and only paying for goods that you will receive.

So maybe if we said "buy a set of BKPs from us and you'll be entered into a prize draw where you'll have a 1 in 300 chance of winning and once we've sold 300 sets of pickups we'll announce a winner, that might work.

Other than that keep playing the National Lottery..........

Anyway back to the guitars themselves

How about this as a colour for one of the  darker ones?

This reminds me of Suhr's Bengal and looks awesome on quilt. I prefer it with a maple fretboard, but its a great colour for sure.

Wow, these are really nice. I've played a few of Jon's Guitars (and he fixed my Les Paul), whoever gets one of these will be really, really lucky!

You could sell 600 20th anniversary plectrums for a fiver each.(any old cheapy picks and write 20 on them with a felt tip)
And then enter the lucky pick owners into the free prize draw for no.8.

That isn't a bad idea you know (Al Melling once sold one of his cars this way so I suspect it can be done somehow). I do think finding 600 peeps might be a challenge however.

600 peeps sound rough, but I suspect most forum folks (me included) would get more than one "ticket", so the actual number, while still high, will be quite a bit lower I suspect.

Funny you should say that, I had the word "Bengal" in my mind when I saw it and looked up Warmoth's Bengal Burst (which, as it turns out, is completely different  :lol:  ).  It also reminds me of some of Carvin's finishes.

Anyway, I really, really like it!

With a set of Blackhawks perhaps?

Hey chaps - been busy adding a few pages to the Feline Guitars website to try and bring it up to speed with the 20th Anniversary stuff.

Here is a link to the section we've started for it - there will be much more to follow as the builds go along and more photos get taken

Indeed!  :D

[HTH AMPS]

go on jonathan stick one up for a prize draw.
£5 a ticket, 600 tickets, 3 grand for you, nice old number 8 for one of us!

2 tickets please young man!

If it's legal it's a great idea  :D I would definitely buy a few tickets.

I offered this kinda deal on a custom built amp and got surprisingly little interest.

Yep!

One day I'll buy a Feline Lion (but with a Fender shaped neck and Fender like radius).
