Re: A Trip to Antigua

Ok...here is an interesting tidbit, Squier / Andertons / Chicago Music Exchange will be offering an Antigua line...even a Tele Custom...hmm...now I'm interested except they would likely never make it to Thailand. https://www.chicagomusicexchange.com/products/squier-classic-vibe-70s-telecaster-custo...

Re: Any Peace Sells or Killing Is My Business era Megadeth fans?

I think the pointy horn were the old style headstock. I'm guessing it's a 2500 or 2800?

Got to see them a few times with that Chris/Gar lineup. Once with Maiden as I recall. Pretty sure I still have that Tour shirt.

I grabbed that image from a vid.

Re: FireBirds

Owning a VII copy and the Epi FB I they feel like any other guitar while sitting. I've said numerous times, they are the Cadillacs of guitars. The neck join + body length puts even a 24.75 scale waaay out there. Gotta have the strap button at the heel for balance. FWIW I'm 6'2" and got long knu...

Holy shit. I'd just looked through Mojo Nixon vids a few months ago. Saw him and Skid at the Rock Island Brewing Company about '85-'86? How did I not hear about this?

Re: Umeda Tele Style with mini hum $205

The Firefly headstock looks like the Furrian to my eyes. Firefly tries to hide it by flipping it upside down on the baritone.

I was just eyeballing the 22"scale travel teles for a whopping $85. Could just drop a real FB pickup in that.

Re: Long term re-imagined Single Cut single pickup eBay cheapo Gold Top

Agile had both a wraparound and a tom/stop.

I'm pretty sure the unfinished kit I got was a Cozart. It's still sitting here painted in Reranch Gold waiting to be assembled.

Re: AL3200 in Wine Red

I remember a wine red Agile. Not sure if the color had made it into the 3200 model though. It was one of the only "fancy" colors that caught my eye back then. I wish I'd snagged the old Callisto Custom in a wine red and a gold one back then. At the time I owned a 3000M and I didnt see much...

Re: PSA: Interesting Agile triple pickup AL/LP - $300 at GC

Looks like my 2800 with an added pickup. Mine doesnt have a pg, but 1 model with a different top shows a pg. Mine is a CSB quilt top.

Edit. Looks like a quilt top.

Have you considered the GFS X Trem stud mount version that attaches into your existing anchor holes? I only mention it because I have one on the way.
