Bad lighting conditions did nothing good for my camera phone, and the squillions of shop bods giving Mitch and I funky looks made snapping shots a strange affair. Anyway, here were some of the highlights:



Yes, vintage white Jag bass(the far left one is not Fiesta Red)






Aerodyne'd







Pure Strat sexiness: a rack of '62 reissues in delicious tones.







~$900 for a Wide-Ranger, anyone?



Some familiar, some not so familiar...

World Officially Gone Mad. They couldn't give these away in the 70s

Haha, you should have seen their insane vintage room. Glorious stuff with prices much higher than even the pie-in-the-sky Guitar Center Hollywood. Oh yeah for got about this one:

Nurse!

Those look delightfully glossy. I would so die if I went to Fender Japan.

Wow. Do want.

That's more reasonable I think.

Those weed pedals look oh so intriguing to play.

SAKJHDSA! Wow. Those are amazing. The grey one is so nice. Reminds me of Steve Albini's grey Bean for some reason, but classier.

considering what some boutique pickups cost, i think anything under $150 is reasonable. beyond that you're just a jerk.

weezer needs to sue weed for logo infringement.

unless they make you sound like weezer OR have weed stashed in them.

But wouldn't they then open themselves up to a Van Halen lawsuit. I seen the Weeze rocking a VH style logo.

Ow lawdy.
I didn't know they made aerodyne in other colours! It's awesome!
Also, America needs more Teles with binding. WTH FENDER MERIKA.

I'm pretty sure they would sell more of that stuff here than Asia?
I dunno.

$900.00 for that pup ..That's the same thing I yanked out of my old mustang and stuck it in a strat.For $900 I'll ebaze that shit.

Keep in mind that you're not in Japan and won't get anything close to $900 for it here. You'll still probably get more money than any pickup is worth though.

Wide rangers go for around $400 tehse days.

you can't put a price on mojo.
