NZGuitars.com : Filling you with GAS since 2003

Looks lovely, also looks to be in pretty fine condition for something that is 50+ years old. Does it feel like it’s been played tons or it’s had stages in its lifetime where it may have been stowed away and not touched much?

Either way, nice job with the refret and congrats on a nice acquisition

The clone is MikeC's. NZ Post damn near lost it along the way!

No doubt will be a great pedal in its own right!

Good scores. Lucky man!

I usually have my Strat and an LP out, those temperature fluctuations would be similar to mine I guess as they're in the front room which is not usually heated. I don't notice much if any effect on either guitar, very occasionally the top E might go a tad sharp but that's about it

Also keen to know where things are at at the moment

Great to hear you are still going Steve. You have fixed a couple of my Fender amps before, bloody nice guy who does great work at a very fair price. Hope you’re doing well

That is beautiful, congrats. Enjoyment for many years right there

Just lovely. Feel like I need an old smelly Tele in my life

Brittler than a sun-baked plastic bottle

For me I found the Katana very underwhelming, I’ve had the 50w and the 100w and neither made my ball sack tingle

Incredible top on that lefty, wow. That should’ve been destined for the Custom Shop, congrats

Most of the Standard's I've had were around the $3k mark, but that was a few years back. Most second hand ones seem to be $500-$1k higher priced than that nowadays

It actually isn't the one listed by Chopper... it was this one here (that went unsold and presently has an fixed price offer of 4800 up): https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/marketplace/music-instruments/instruments/guitar-bass/electric-guitars/listing/4187050947?archive=1&bof=z511papb Isn't this guy q...

There was another R7 Goldtop that went for $4900 I think, that was a few months back
