I've got 2 - 2000 something one off Custom Shop Strats and the build quality is not near the build quality of my Hamers. The CS Strats are much closer to my 82' Japanese Strat, which I think is the best guitar of the 3. I'm still looking for a Cali...... I hope they don't Touch Hamer USA. Very Sad news

Awesome amp

Maybe their looking at other things you would bring to the band. Background vocals or lead vocals, BEER, wild women, or maybe it's because you still have a drivers license. If they like you and you like them, make music!!!!

Here's some Floyd Parts, You might try asking on the Charvel Forum also, those guys are always working on older Schaller Floyds. They might have some parts. http://www.guitarnucleus.com/gnstore/tremolo.html http://www.guitarnucleus.com/gnstore/floyd_saddle_info.htm

The first time I heard Danny Cedrone play the solo on Rock around the Clock for Bill Haley and the Comets. Obviously a recorded version other wise I'd be to old to breath. I still think it is one of the coolest guitar solo's ever.......Followed by some of Chet Atkins work. Here's some of his work, obviously the band was syncing to a tape. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WdRaQZCOEf4 Check out the ride on Hot Dog Buddy Buddy.....Pure 1950's distortion on a ride yeehaw!!!!!
