Um... It's the Venus, her sig guitar? I can see the confusion though. Obviously Fender/ Squier wouldn't produce a sig model that didn't have the Fender/ Squier headstock and they probably used different p/ups to keep the price down.

I heard that it was some little known guitar teh kurdtz bought for her in some pawn shop and that the venus was then based off of.

Yeah, there's some guitar that she ripped off that I'm sure Jcyphe could tell us about, but the details are lost in the vaults of my brain box.

Thats a pretty cool story actually.

Gavin, I already know of the Venus, sold my Wilshire on ebay eariler this week and bought TheBurb's one. Well excited =D
Just wasn't sure about this one.

There was already a thread about this that now of course isn't showing up in searches.

Where the fuck are all the threads going?

You should try using google to search the forums, it's what I do 'cause the forum search is pish. type in your search terms then type site:www.shortscale.org to only get results from shortscale. You can't search the pub though 'cause that's hidden to Google.

Ah, right. So the one with the gumby headstock is actually the original guitar she based it on.

Fuuuu-

This thread made me stick on Live Through This and the first two tracks on that album are fucking rally good.

i like it better than teh squer

Gavin · Post by **Gavin** » Sat Nov 14, 2009 6:49 pm

Yeah, I prefer the original. The headstock looks weird and small on the Squier, like a Beadle hand headstock.

it would be easy enough to clone with a warmoth neck and some dogears

Having just received one from Cooter, I can safely say the DO NOT smell like Courtney's private area.

There's one I've been eyeing for years at bills music house in baltimore. No one's ever picked it up except for me and the price still hasn't come down.

$349...

this is when you make an offer. (well, not now, per se, just when you're not buying a mustang with a p90.

)

The venus is low on my want list right now. It's more of if I see a great deal on one I'd grab it. but I'm not overly bonared about it.

It's a nice player, but wouldn't be one of my mains.
