I'm really interested in playing those MIM Jags and Jazzys, totally can't justify any interest in them.
What colour Baja would you prefer?

i'm unsure, i really like yours as it's like a 52 tele. either way, i'd like a black pickguard.

Yeah I think the sand would look nice with a Black guard also.

i might see if they'll chuck one in. i'm getting a tweed hardcase for it as well.

Phat. I need me a tweed case, if they're reasonable can you let me know?

mine was £40, kinsman one. way cheaper than the £150 + for a fender tweed case.

it's quite nice, doesn't fit gibson style guitars. but for fenders and danelectros, it's fine. fits my strat real nice.

I've always been a fan of desert sand - think it would look cool with a black guard.

I'll have to get my serial number as a tattoo or something.
I wonder what guard fits a Baja, presumably a standard 5-hole Telecaster guard?

i'm hoping its a standard five hole, unless it's some vintage correct thing.
you mean you don't remember your serial numbers off by heart? lol

if your referring to what we discussed in that pm, then i chickened out for the moment. she didn't know i was planning it. it will happen very soon though. i don't think the answer will be the negative though.
i've fell in love with st ives, i would quite happily live there for the rest of my life.
Maximum romantic (or nearly, anyway). Feel the same way about St Ives, we go down every year. Whereabouts did you stay?
And why am I asking all this in Mike's pedal thread?

I'm all about the love and chatter. This place is as good as any for that.
As for the serial numbers, I have emailed them to myself in case of theft.

It's definitely something worth doing, you just know that you'll be asked for that shit if someone rips you off.

norway stores is lovely, i like that place.
i'm craving doombar and cornish rattler. the little bakery on the corner that makes the saffron Chelsea and tea cakes. st ives is also the home of fiat pandas, seen loads like mine, i felt like i was home.
