Nice one Molly, I put those pickups in my Tele and love them, the twisted neck gives a lovely strat tone for leads!!

I used a strat pickup

That works too

Nice buy Molly, good to see your family are derailing you too much and you still have your priorities in order

When I finally get round to getting myself a Tele, unless the stock ones are great I think I 'll be plumping for a set of Joe Barden pickups. Have been a fan of Gatton for ages so it seems like the logical decision

There is a hanger on my wall ready for that Tele when you return.

$15k price tag on that but it looked as cool as fuck. There was a young guy looking it over when I arrived. I assumed he'd just been signed. LOL

Fuck I'd have jumped on that. Luverly old piece of wood an all.

I checked that out yesterday... I’m also in CA. Super nice, changed bridge, with better intonation. Am trying to find somewhere in LA where I can sell a kidney...

I must have tried out 20 acoustics yesterday, I’m looking for something special that’s already played in/opened up.
Despite all the old Martins and every conceivable Taylor being available, the best guitar by a fair margin was a well-used Eastman D acoustic. I would have bought it, but the bridge was lifting.
