@velorush agreed RE M&M including the neck dimensions and weight in their listings, outta be a law. @Dave Scepter thanks, I saw the 1 5/8” nut width in the listing.The rest of the neck dimensions look promising on paper: Shape: Medium C, measuring .860” 1st fret, .970” 12th fret, but it would probably be too narrow for my preference. @RobB What’s the neck like on your Greco MS?

Seems like a solid deal, what’s to not like? I love the gig bag. https://reverb.com/item/92712244-1990-greco-fv-650-flying-v-vintage-guitar-black-japan-fujigen

Tribute Band name: “99¢ Store Trick”

@Dutchman: Hats off to you, the amp is a thing of beauty! Goodluck in your endeavors! Hoping to not threadcrap, if you don’t mind my asking, are you getting the cabinets from MOJOTONE, and the Fender nameplates directly from Fender? I always wanted a solid wood cabinet for my circa 1980 Champ, which is particle board, but not bad enough to spend $425! One used to be able to buy repro blackface name plates on Reverb, but not any longer. Thanks

How many red strats is enough red strats?

It’s a Watson 8 string bass!

The body looks like mahogany, which I understood to be a body wood option. I think I’d prefer the sound of a hog body Californian over one with a maple body, but I’m sure they all sound unique.

Late last year I was looking for a Bakersfield (circa 2013), the predecessor to the Baker T. I’d read they built the Bakersfields along side the Seymour Duncan “35” teles. But, the ‘fields don’t come up for sale very often (most were maple FB, a few RW) and I bought a Baja tele I really like instead. FWIW, I like the logos on the ‘Field better than the one on the T, and also do not like the painted headstock on the T, but I’ve never played either one. Sweetwater sells the T and Pro and I recall seeing promo video a few months back that featured Matt Larrivee. The video also touted a Sweetwater exclusive T that has/had a uniform 9.5” neck radius but I do not see them listed on the SW site at present. Might be worth a call. GLWTP

@RobB

Pass me the Nine Inch Nails

Maybe @mirrorimij can comment.

Hey man! No Neil = No Rush! They should rename the band Bush (or Tush). JK: Anybody got a spare ticket?

@The Shark smells blood

Anyone have any experience with the JTM45 Reissue that was produced during the early 2000’s? Would seem to check many boxes 2x 5881 3 x 12AX7 GZ34 recto 4 inputs 30 watts output I realize that it’s not PTP, but

Robin Rawhide Thinline, anyone? https://reverb.com/item/92167551-2007-robin-rawhide-rio-grande-pickups-great-player-241

@geoff_hartwell Why place the head beneath the cabinet— because the cab tilted back? That’s what HD Velcro is for!

Dang, you could hide a pound of sweet ganja in that control compartment.

Looks Fane-tastic!

That looks good enough to eat, and also fretless, except in the close up.

Sort of a PSA here— Schenker will be touring behind his new album “My Years with UFO”, playing a long US Tour including the GAMH in SF during Oct.
