1 Tele

1 backup Tele

1 Fender Hot rod Deville

Even that is too much equipment for me.

Ah I wish I knew. That's actually the first guitar case I bought, in a shop in Camden that isn't there anymore, in 1995. You seen those Reverend teardrop cases for their old USA guitars? There're cool-as, and black and white!
