Dench blue?

welcome to the forum.
There are still some that think the neck PU is moved to accommodate the extra frets which only proves they cannot detect the difference in length of each.

Good stuff. So what sort of price are we looking at for a Telecaster body, stripped of hardware & electrics so it's all ready to paint?

most of the classic colours are from general motors, except denche blue, which comes from an oil drum.... (ignore that last bit)
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

Clearly I need to nag more, then we can have a shitload of image space .

Please donate for images ..... or just accept that you need to link them from other places, it takes an extra minute.

Yes, clearly you would like me to critique every post you make... I can actually do that before it's approved, my lack of apostrophes is perfectly acceptable amongst my peers. I need to be syntactically correct for my entire working day, after that I can be sluggish.

I dunno mate, but I have this feeling you may be getting a little obsessed with blue?
At least he's not thinking of shades of gray.
