And "Llana" is her name.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Lana sports the Verheyen floating trem set up on a tension adjustable Wilkinson unit, as well as the rounded fingerboard edges they call "Lowered Apex" with a 7.25" radius. The medium "C" is hand shaped after Carl's '61 Strat. The body is alder, finish is nitro and body is alder weighing in at just over 7 lbs. Frets are 6105's, and pickups are Carl's design, wound by LSL.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Basically, this is a Strat-o-gasm! Seriously folks, there's nothing but rave buzz out there on LSL guitars. And if FCS was making this, the price would be triple. There's no better time to acquire an LSL!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;I first saw Gary Clark Jr. in vids from the most recent Crossroads Fest, where he shared the stage with Doyle Bramhall II. Although it seems like the new Blues generation is mostly white people, and that young black musicians are more interested in other genres, Clark can make it seem like we haven't really heard any Blues in awhile.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;No disrespect intended to all the contemporary Blues artists who dedicate their lives to the music. It's just that Gary Clark Jr. has that old strong ammonia piss vibe that just hit the city and plugged into an amp for the first time so many decades ago. And he shows up from some trans-dimensional time rift; like the guy walkin' his dog in a Kurt Vonnegut book. But mostly, this just hits me like hot jet blast on a carrier deck!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Lot's of official documents included too!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_xWjoeLNcmQo/TJ5BS2RsrjI/AAAAAAAAFcM/rxfGSeJzVek/s1600/eric+johnson+62+candy.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="266" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_xWjoeLNcmQo/TJ5BS2RsrjI/AAAAAAAAFcM/rxfGSeJzVek/s400/eric+johnson+62+candy.JPG" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="color: red;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;1/30/12 Note: This guitar was originally sold in Sept, 2010 by the same seller. We inquired about this, and confirmed the guitar is available once again.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="color: red;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Minnesota based vintage Strat maven merchant extreme Ed Matthews aka "Eddie Vegas" just listed yet another vintage Strat of Eric Johnson lineage. I think this is the 4th one I've seen in as many years...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;But if there's any doubt, just know that Ed's eBay feedback is 100%, with a 3K plus score. And he always has plenty of serious vintage Fender inventory. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This '62, formerly owned by Eric Johnson (due diligence!) has been featured frequently throughout EJ's career, and dissected by Fender seeking secrets from the old mystics of the non-filter ciggy era. Anyway, Ed's price is $90K, and he doesn't care if he has to sit on it past the Mayan calendar expiration. He also doesn't want any calls from "tire kickers". &lt;i&gt;I spoke to Ed one time-- ya gotta get those questions asked QUICK, before he starts rollin'!&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But if you got that kinda ephedra laced guitar collector cash reserve, this one could be a real trophy wife. The last one you'll ever need. You could ride around town with her in your Batmobile!&lt;br /&gt;

If you're NOT really gonna buy the $99,000.00 Stratocaster, then at least pick up some strings, picks, a Jack LaLanne juicer machine or a nice chrome piggy bank with marital aids stuck all over its body. eBay pays me a pay-per-click rate based upon visitor quality. So like Ed said, "No Tire Kickers!"&lt;br /&gt;

Love the bound body, front and back! And is that a Jazzmaster neck?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;You'd have to accessorize your wardrobe to play this one.  I'd recommend a tan suede jacket with the long fringes, Saigon mirror shades, straw cowboy hat and Neil Young sideburns.  Include a cream tolex Dual Showman with a bottle of Wild Turkey sitting on top, and you're there. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;This is one of the nastiest Nash &lt;strike&gt;relic&lt;/strike&gt; guitars I've seen, since those nitro fire survivors Bill did a few years back. The S-57 Louisiana Roadhouse looks like a flood recovery that survived cuz it was dipped in the fry-o-lator just before the levee, it bust open. Yeah, the case candy should include an order of fried okra!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;The ash body, 3-tone nitro finish is loaded with custom Lollars. Neck is a boat, soft "V", meaning it's super fat. And what will this guitar look like in 50 years? Maybe gator tail jerky. But imagine how it will sound!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Meet Kendra, a 6.8 lb swamp ash dream in vintage cream. That's what they call this finish which resembles Fender's trans-blonde Mary Kaye and EJ models. It's nitro as well.&amp;nbsp; SoCal based &lt;a href="http://www.lslinstruments.com/" rel="nofollow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;LSL Instruments&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt; gives each guitar build a female name, hence "Kendra".&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Bodies, necks and even pickguards are handmade and shaped by LSL, who also wind their own pickups. The S-type model name is "Saticoy", Tele profile is the "T-bone" and they make a Carl Verheyen signature S-type called the "CV Special". Top players are raving about LSL guitars which price point very reasonably at the low side of Fender CS pricing, and a fraction of a DeTemple or D'Pergo. Verheyen's endorsement says it all.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Kendra comes with a 7.25" radius, 21 fret "C", sportin' 6105 frets. The hardware is aged. A G&amp;amp;G case is included.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;

&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Eric Johnson - Dijon finish&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Who knows? But since we dig Eric Johnson, I'm sure this Fuzz Face will be the master of all models. Just introduced at Winter NAMM 2012, the EJ FF is dialed in to sound like Eric's favorite vintage ones. This is the 4th FF model from the folks at Dunlop. Here's the current selection:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;RED - Regular, standard, basic, etc. "Pass the ketchup!"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;BLUE - Hendrix model. Sounds just exactly like Jimi... Purple would be smarter.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;COPPER - Joe Bonamassa. Bling! Brasso polish not included.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;DIJON - Eric Johnson. Mustard for your tone!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Does anyone think this will keep going like all the Crybaby pedals? How many different Crybaby models does Dunlop have now? &lt;i&gt;I'm still waiting for the Yoko Ono Wah&lt;/i&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;PLEASE! NO CAMO FUZZ FACE!!! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;I think a great little boutique niche could be painting celeb &lt;a href="http://www.1stwebdesigner.com/inspiration/great-celebrity-caricatures/" rel="nofollow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;caricatures&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt; on Fuzz Face pedals. Imagine the face of Steve Buscemi, Chef Gordon Ramsey, Joe Pesci or Samuel L. Jackson adapted to a FF pedal! The tough part is finding the artist to do it. But then again, there's one at every carnival, fair and trade show. Just remember that you read it here first!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="233" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/xK9z-cu11m4" width="400"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;You'd think that Guitar World, who uploaded this video, might be just a slight bit interested in the musician. But apparently not-- as there are no credits, captions or tags including the identity of the guitarist.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Check this clip's first 40 seconds, then skip ahead to 03:20 - 05:40. It will become very clear that &lt;a href="http://www.stratoblogster.com/2010/02/edgar-winter-guitarist-doug-rappoport.html"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Doug Rappoport&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt; isn't an ENGL shipping &amp;amp; receiving drone brought to NAMM simply because his playing sucks less than the rest of the staff. And just maybe, someone at GW could perceive this enough to plug the musician here. I dunno-- is it just me or WTF?!!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;But enough rant already. Know that Rappoport is a busy LA session player, 10 year veteran with Edgar Winter's band and an instructor at Musician's Institute. He also has a cool solo release titled, &lt;a href="http://www.emusic.com/listen/#/album/doug-rappoport/bionic/11249776/" rel="nofollow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;BIONIC&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. But mostly, Doug is a badass guitar player worth knowing about! So check the links!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Dedicated to all the proud men and women of the music gear industry who put their lives on the line in Anaheim each and every January.&amp;nbsp; And really, what better way to express the emotion and shear wonder of it all than with a sensitive and dynamic, carefully chosen selection from the age honored lexicon we cherish first and foremost, known as THE BLUES.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;We've featured Tony Mowatt's videos before-- &lt;i&gt;see link below&lt;/i&gt;. He's the Youtube go-to guy for classic soul guitar style as well as Keith Richards progressions. Above, Tony takes on an Al Green favorite originally featuring guitarist Teenie Hodges who co-wrote lots of cool tunes with Green.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;I recommend first going to 04:50 for the play along, then checking out the full breakdown at the beginning of the clip. If you're in a Rock, Blues or even Funk rut, this may be the sort of thing to open you up to a sophisticated, yet understated approach that just grooves!&amp;nbsp; &lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;One Youtube comment: "sweet jesus....he sounds like a﻿ 4000 year old black man"&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Haha! 4000 years seems like a lot. But who this kid really reminds me of is &lt;a href="http://www.stratoblogster.com/2007/10/chris-cain-bends-like-albert-sings-like.html"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Chris Cain&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. He does some great Blues faces too!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;"Better living through Bakelite, Formvar &amp;amp; Alnico III!"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;Aussie pickup guru Rod McQueen gets pretty esoteric about his vintage pickup construction.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just read this from Mr. Slider himself:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
"'Genuine' old vintage pickups are way overpriced and a huge gamble, here's the problem,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the 1950's, electronics were pretty basic, to the point that the mechanical counters on the machines that Leo &amp;amp; Co used to handwind pickups were very inconsistent, errors in production, both mechanical and human, were common place. This caused the wide variation in specifications and sound we find in vintage pickups sold today. Some sound great, others are less than impressive! Not to mention the possibility of fatal internal issues, check the pic of what killed a real '56 vintage I rebuilt this week! Old DOESN'T mean good! (cont...)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a name='more'&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now you can try something you never thought you could, a totally authentic re-creation of the famous late 50's Strat pickup set. Not the modern mass produced offerings that everyone's playing. These are identical those vintage muti-thousand dollar sets you have seen, only better!  WHY....&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Because these are serious, quality recreations of the originals, but New and 100% mechanically sound, and I do mean SOUND, (pun intended!)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I start with real black forbon bobbins, lacqured to prevent internal corrosion (check that last pic again!) around the sand cast staggered and hand beveled, etched AlNiCo poles. All "scatterwound" to the magical Tone Zone.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The AlNiCo 3 (around 1/2 the power of AlNiCo5) combines with the scatterwinding to achieve clarity,chime and top end shimmer while still retaining a rich and warm "Bluesy" tone with true power. The hand aged, hand bevelled AlNiCo poles add a smooth, mellow warmth to the classic strat "bell tones and quack" without the thin "ice-pick" sterility found with most newer, cheap and machine produced pickups.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For Auction are a matched set of handmade "scatterwound" Classic 57's, a re-creation 1957 spec,  single coil pickups for your Strat or Clone or Special project.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Slider's Classic Vintage 57's&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All personally handwound in Sydney Australia. All parts are imported from the USA and the highest quality, true to the original Fender pickups. The fact is that all best,major and boutique pickup makers, use parts from a few common suppliers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This set consists of 3 hand made scatterwound Single Coil Pickups with aged Parchment White 50's re-pro "rounded" Bakelite style relic Pickup Covers. These classic pickup covers are unique to Slider's, very difficult to find and sell for considerable amounts by themselves!  You also get a full set of aged 6/32 UNC adjustment screws with natural amber, vintage style rubber spacers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This set is built to the following spec's and DC resistance&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Neck; 5.68 +/-  kOhms                 Middle; 5.62 +/- kOhms               Bridge; 5.79 +/- kOhms&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
North magnetic polarity, correct for factory pre c1958&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Winding (clockwise), 42g (.063mm) Heavy "Formvar" vintage spec coil wire&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sand cast, AlNiCo 3 acid etched, staggered height, Hand beveled, individual pole pieces, Low B, high D &amp;amp; G. All individually magnetized by me, using rare earth Neo-dymium Boride polarising magnets to recreate 50 year old Alnico. Exacting, aged replication.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Vintage correct Black vulcanized "forbon" fiber flatwork bobbins with Nickel wiring eyelets&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Output wiring is 12" Black (ground) and 12" White active, 22 AWG celanese wrap and waxed braided, cotton outer insulation, vintage pushback wiring&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This set has a vintage "Straight Up" NO RW/RP middle pickup.  All are matched to work perfectly with 3 or 5 way switching and no "out of phase" issues or dramas!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All come with my "Bakelite" style pickup covers (exclusive to Slider's) and a full set of "age matched" 6/32 UNC round head mounting screws with vintage style amber rubber compression spacers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All are Lacquered, prior to winding to prevent long term corrosion of the wire against the AlNiCo poles (the most common problem I see for killing vintage pickups), then Wax potted "post build" to reduce possible high volume microphonics and provide protection to the delicate windings.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All pickups come individually labeled and signed with all specs relating to Materials, Polarity and Composition.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These are not an "off the shelf" pickup and are intended for the discerning player or restorer of fine instruments."&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;As her above 2011 GNR cover demonstrates, Etta went out fighting! And a whole lotta girls out there are carrying on all the better because of her influence. So Ms. Etta gave a lot to us in her 73 years, and we thank her for it!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Bonnie Raitt, Susan Tedeschi, Joss Stone, Beth Hart, Christy Whitley, Joanne Shaw Taylor and many others are keeping Etta James alive and well.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;2007 was the 20th Anniversary of Fender Custom Shop. Hence the oval headstock stamp &amp;amp; neckplate. This Jason Smith Masterbuilt Closet Classic from '07 features a thoroughly checked Fiesta Red nitro finish on a light ash body with tinted neck &amp;amp; rosewood fretboard. The 9.5", large 21 fret "C" has 6105 frets and a fat headstock. Pickups are '69's at neck and mid with a Texas Special bridge coil. Pickguard is a 3 ply minty. &lt;b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: x-small;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 10pt;"&gt;SCOTTSDALE,  Ariz. &amp;nbsp;(Jan. 19, 2012) – Meet Greta™ and Excelsior™, Fender’s new and  coolly unconventional Pawn Shop Special amplifiers. The two stylish amps  resemble the esoteric finds you might discover in a pawnshop or  second-hand store, and make for the most distinctive addition to any  musician’s collection. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Housed in the playfully diminutive form of a vintage tabletop radio, the &lt;b&gt;Pawn Shop Special Greta &lt;/b&gt;model  is quite possibly the most unusual Fender tube amp ever (in fact,  you’ll be hard pressed to find the name “Fender” anywhere on it). It’s a  charming two-watt tabletop beauty with a 4” Special Design speaker,  old-school VU meter with “clean to overload” indicator display, simple  volume and tone controls, and a 1/8” back-panel auxiliary input perfect  for iPod or other media player use.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Its vintage-style enclosure has front and rear wood panels finished in  bright red, gold-finished metal top and sides for increased shielding,  “Greta” script badge on the front panel and tabletop feet. Under the  hood and on the back panel, Greta features a single 12AT7 output tube  and 12AX7 preamp tube, with a ¼” instrument jack and ¼” line out jack  (for preamp use with another amplifier). &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Undoubtedly one of the most distinctive tube combo amps produced in Fender history, the alluringly refined &lt;b&gt;Pawn Shop Special Excelsior &lt;/b&gt;harbors  tones from polite, to raw and raucous. Its brown textured vinyl  covering, smartly stylish “E” grille design and bold crossed-swords  front-panel badge convey a decidedly stately vibe with a marked air of  cold-war cool.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The 13-watt Excelsior elegantly encloses a single 15” Special Design  speaker, with bottom-loaded primary chassis and top-loaded control  chassis for operating convenience and low noise (powered by two 6V6  output tubes and two 12AX7 preamp tubes). Distinctive features include  “instrument,” “microphone” and “accordion” inputs that each have  individually optimized circuitry; tremolo circuit with speed control,  bright/dark tone switch (for treble or bass emphasis), volume control  and ¼” internal speaker disconnect that lets the amp drive an external  speaker enclosure. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For playing at home, smaller gigs and studio sessions, the Excelsior is a  class act that brings a fresh and unconventional new vibe to your  playing.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-4jwpkq4e2U4/TxdLEAi045I/AAAAAAAAGnM/NmeudTGA0IU/s1600/trussart+steel+back.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="212" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-4jwpkq4e2U4/TxdLEAi045I/AAAAAAAAGnM/NmeudTGA0IU/s320/trussart+steel+back.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;Click pics for close-ups &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-cJWOiFvDIPQ/TxdLeXisOCI/AAAAAAAAGnU/J1jMUGpU_rI/s1600/trussart+steel+front.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="212" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-cJWOiFvDIPQ/TxdLeXisOCI/AAAAAAAAGnU/J1jMUGpU_rI/s320/trussart+steel+front.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Besides all steel semi-hollows, Trussart does wood. But the metal accenting that has become Trussart's trademark, is boldly utilized throughout the line-- down to the gray stained maple necks. And this Steel O Matic S-type has a &lt;i&gt;chambered&lt;/i&gt; alder body, so don't worry about it weighing in with a Chevy diesel Silverado 2500. Whew!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Sugar Pine is also a body option. Neck is a "62" profile, 10" radius with 6105 frets. Pickups are by Arcane. Rustproofing, extended power train coverage and towing package are probably gonna run extra.&lt;b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

I guess nobody told him this might be biting off more than he can chew. Kudos to the parents for lettin' this train roll! Wonder if that's a Yngwie Strat? Can you see scallops?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;This video, from May, 2011, indicates Ryan as 9. He might be 10 now-- ooooh! Ryan's band is called "Unavailable", based in Fredrick, MD, and they have a &lt;a href="https://www.facebook.com/unavailable.band?sk=info" rel="nofollow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Facebook page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt; you can LIKE, to monitor their progress as the lads keep growing. Wonder what their groupie scene is like... &lt;b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

They oughta include photos of the owner's hands as well... probably has those big knuckles like Keef! If you check the full listing while it's there, you'll see tons of pics including full disassembly, electronics, screws, saddles, crust, corrosion and every inch of fretboard. They claim everything is original except for one saddle and some bridge screws that got too corroded to use. But those original loose parts are still included. And the finish is gone. Gone!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;Ok, so actually the finish was stripped. I'm surprised there's no mention of the finish residue included in a ziplock or maybe an urn. But you can ask about that...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;I've been watching for &lt;a href="http://www.ericgales.net/" rel="nofollow"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Eric Gales&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt; to get back on board with the Experience Hendrix tours. Looks like it's a done deal for the March 2012 US leg! This is great news, as Gales fans have witnessed a strong comeback and recovery over the last 2 years, with two new albums on Shrapnel, and a very active schedule. The Experience Hendrix shows always offer a strong array of major talent. Eric's return is sure to make this gig even more special!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;This is the very first Fender Custom Shop YELLOW Relic Strat we've ever seen! Maybe yellow is making a comeback. Or possibly since the world is supposed to end this year, they decided to just go for it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;This one has Fat 50's pickups, 6105 frets and a custom neck with a slight "V". Oddly enough, the neck is also a compound radius, though no specs are given. Maybe 7.25 to 10 or 9.5 to 12-- but I have no clue. Call 'em!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;As you can see in lower pic, all the candy, COA and OHSC are included.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
