my first guitar was a squier affinity strat pack. lal.
I need to do some work on it, the original trem arm broke off in the block and I've been toying with the idea of putting 3 p90s in.
It's refinished in "tropical turquoise" one of those 60's ford colors.

They do look like penises, standing on little beanbags. Maybe if you draw them spurting ink it'd clear up the confusion.

Sort of. They bang a high price on the new stuff, but they drop over time. They were selling Dano reissues for £150 at one point, and that blue Batwing is much lower than the RRP.

I actually rate Forsythes as one of the best guitar shops in Manchester in terms of the collection they stock.

i thought i saw someone post a pic of their guitar earlier that had a cock scratched in to the finish under the pick guard.

just found it, it was tim's CV Strat - http://www.shortscale.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=35760

looks like cocks are all the rage in 2010
