Late 60s Fender F1050, made by Harmony basically an upgraded H1203 with the best woods and headstock overlay. These were the top of the line, this one has a lot of bear claw spruce on the top. It has been reset and is a great player (bought from a mate in the US).

Unless I'm mistaken, that's a Silverburst. That's what happens to the 70s ones over time, they go green.

New pedal board power coming from Gigrig in the UK. Voodoo Labs PP2+ did an amazing job for 10 years. Never ever had an issue with it, but I need a few more outputs now.
Gigrig. My gear loving brain says "Yes"!, my wallet says "Ouch".

Fender Player Series. Kinda in the mail... since it's not in NZ yet. Played it through a Princeton Reverb, I quite liked the pickups too. At least I hope it was the pickup, not the Princeton.

Those look really cool, was tempted by that model last time I was in the USA. I really like the colour.

are you selling a PP2?
They keep telling me tone is in the fingers, but I have yet to see a "look at my fingers" thread.
