I've been GASsing for a Tele with Maple Neck/Fretboard, Alnico Singlecoils in Blonde or some Butterscotch like finish for the last few weeks.
I NEED one so I have a reason to start a country band lol!


Things I'm also gassing for:
Gretsch with Dynasonics, 5 String Banjo, Lap Steel Guitar, Pedal Steel Guitar, a good Tube Amp, a Double Bass, a Gretsch Drumset... oh yeah, and a Mondolin would be awesome.
Anyone got some spare instruments? lol!

Well, my GAS is the blondeshell at the moment. I have a feeling I am not alone Very Happy

Then 1 of these Esquire is also on my list, just awesome tone!
Any idea what that blonde Fender amp next to the Vox is?

Looks like a Custom Shop Vibro King. I've seen the T-Birds with Kid Ramos a few times, and (apart from the first time, when he used a Marshall! What a Face ) he used to play through a Vibro King.

Yepp, I saw them at Notodden Blues Festival in 95, Myrens Dam, then he used a Marshall top and cab. It sounded great and knocked me out. First time I saw Kid, never heard of him before but been a fan ever since Smile

Try Baja Telecaster, I bought one 6 months ago and I'm very satisfied with the overall playability & versatility. I switched the black pickguard to tortoise colour.

I can't afford that much right now unfortunately. I heard that the Squier Classic Vibe 50s Tele is also pretty good. Also the reliced ones by "Vintage".
I need a cheapo^^

my gas for the moment are the blondeshell and old school fuzz pedals.

I'd love to get a(nother) Gretsch, TV Jones guitar, or Koll, but after playing my Spectra Sonic last night I feel sorry for my Tele and LP that I have right now. Something clicked last night while playing and it felt like I wasn't even playing a guitar anymore but a part of me (The Matrix movie type stuff), the feel of the guitar was different, and the sound coming out of the amp was something I haven't heard come out before. I carefully put everything back as not to bump any of the controls Smile. Today or tomorrow, whenever the next chance I get to play for a good amount of time, it will probably be a different story.

I'm still interested in some electronics mods (maybe a powertron plus?)

I would still love a Billy-Bo, Phoenix, RHH, Zoom silver jet, or a Superglide Almighty
