Hlysht. So my wife and I were talking about me buying a vintage guitar after our next pedal launch, because we have a pre-order thing set up which starts with a load of cash in our hands. But anyway, I had almost forgotten this thing existed, and got away from me time after time.

So, sorry, 70's strat, I think you'll have to wait.
It's still in the works, but hopefully we'll have it sorted out in the next few days. I'm probably going to tune it G-G, a friend of mine had good results with that back when these were new.

Can't you get the one with 'Bottom Master' on the headstock?

Damn I wish. But those ones were for the Japanese market, so unless you snuck one out of Ishibashi...

The Bottom Master's got built in fuzz too. There was one on eBay about a month ago. I was soooo tempted but importing it from the US was going to cost a bomb.

BUILT IN FUTZ. Not a fan of onboard effects, but that name makes up for it.

cant argue with you there they are uggo.
rip the strat jack out, put jack where tone knob is. fuck an tone.
put a sticker over the hole where the jack was.
then replace the eye punishment of a bridge with a toronado bridge.
23 bucks

Anti-island discrimination again.

Weird, it lets me see it. Must be my privilege.
Although I am not sure that being able to view that monstrosity is much of a privilege.
Edit: actually, despite not being much of a fan of antigua (the finish, not the country), I don't seem to
mind that all that much.

I think it can look OK if you change the guard to a black, or maybe even white one. The bird poo colour will probably age really badly tho.

Yeah, neighbor, I saw that shit, and I played it. And That Jag is better. It's not like I have control over the money in my life anyway. If I get a $300 squier it doesnt mean I get another $600 to spend on gear, it just means she has $600 more to waste on a house payment or something else stupid and boring.
Can't believe you asking me if I saw a Baritone Squier that's already been released. I didn't DIE, Rob.
