Have you got the original pups?
I'll call second dibs after Troy. Bandmate who was selling the Les Paul and Gretsch to buy a Tele has had a revelation. It's dawned on him that he actually can buy more guitars without selling any first. :rofl:
Yes. Bought it new last year.

Nope. Married.
Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

Sorry. I did get it but wanted to post some pics. Should really give this its own thread.

Troy's mate might be interested. Just waiting to hear back. I asked him for $1,300. Not sure how that might sound at the moment.

I took out the S2 loom (comes with it) as it was bloody noisy and replaced the pots, switch, socket with spendy stuff and standard wiring. Also put an earth on the bridge (doesn't have one in stock configuration - something to do with the S2 thing).

Cool, the S2 is good if you're doing the funk thing, but irritating if not!

Thank you for the pics!
