It did. Christ, that took a full week. Well, it sounds bloody nice but I've already exhausted my repertoire. Didn't think to buy strings so can't have my ritual clean / restring tonight. Action is a bit high.
In other news, I've just bought this on a bit of a whim. Interested to give it a go. All the cork-sniffery CS Strat stuff has been ultimately a bit underwhelming. Just thought I'd buy a decent model and a reasonable price and give it a shot.

I recall they did an ash one called Sienna Burst or something like that. I always liked that one. Would typically have avoided this model because it wasn't 'vintage spec' but sod it. Never bothered Jeff Beck.

TC Electronic 'Crescendo' pedal. Based on the old Boss Slow Gear. I used a volume pedal a lot for the recording of one of the album tracks, but it's really impractical doing it live while singing. So going to give this pedal a whirl. Looks like it will do the job very well

It's not the Princeton that I was hoping for, but it's the next best thing. It's probably going to live at my work.

Yes. My Mrs is cool about this stuff. She just gets irritated sometimes by the time all the shipping malarkey takes up.
