Lole, park me here too.

I do love the headstock plate thang on these new ones though.. although I realise they are probably period rather than new?

These always make me think of this:

sadly, i think this is true. that bridge will be lost to history and bl00z lawyers.

One of these days IÃ¢â‚¬â„¢m going to commission a machine shop to make me a run of 60Ã¢â‚¬â„¢s styled Duo-Sonic/Musicmaster bridges.

Just buy the tornado bridge and drill 3 extra holes in it. It takes 5 minutes

It isnÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t correct.

Amazing move Noirie. The more I look at that white Crestwood, the more I like it.

Sweet. Am jealous.

Back to the original topic for a moment, IÃ¢â‚¬â„¢d like a Marauder II. Fender have re-released pretty much everything else over the last few years but this would be the icing on the cake for me. They made a Custom Shop HH version a while back but a Squier CV SSS one would be killer.

Oasis with a capo? Rob must be in torment

L'orange looks cool though.

Looks like guitars cartoonists draw. Graceless and ill dimensioned in every way.
