sorry, tele-lipsticks. they're still chrome, and they're still shaped like little vibrators from the 60's. they're just smaller.

i'll hereby refer to them as vintage neck pocket-rockets.

Do want. If it looks anything like that, I think it'll be the baritone I buy. However the scale on it doesn't look much like a baritone to me, rather more like a standard tele...

$739?

doesn't bode well for UK shaft-o-matic price translations.

I reckon 27" is just lazy shorthand for almost 28", like the bar conversion necks are. Trust me, it's ample for a baritone.

Ghost silver, eh? That could be sexy.
