Bloody hell... Just heard on here! RIP old chap.

My checkered strap arrived today - stuck some straplocks on it - but humbled beyond words at the pure raceyness of that vision of deliciousness... I need a lie down again... B

Oh my...I have witnessed greatness!!!! I need a lie down! B

100% with you on QC - plus I think its horrible and I can't imagine why they bothered - who would spend hard earned £/$ on that? Its so far past derivative its untrue. If they spent the same r&d budget on producing a decent SG junior in an early 60s spec I can't help thinking that they would have a very respectible Market for it. Nevermind, tokai got there first. Cheers, grumpy Ben. (who's been waiting for a 'proper' sg jr reissue for ever!!!)

Quote: - They made a one-off custom out of it. B&C made it a double cutaway and put a relief on the back (like a Stratocaster, see the picture) to fit against the players side comfortably, the edges were rounded and finally it was painted a beautiful metallic blue with a white neck....................... Translated as "I told them to do this to it...... NIGHTMARE! I need to go and look at my proper guitars, quickly, to get that picture out of my mind! B*

Oh God - I need to have a lie down in a darkened room now! Must...resist!!!!!! Let me know if you EVER decide to sell that!! Cheers, Ben.

Fantastic, gorgeous guitar! I've got a couple of other irons in the fire at the moment - don't suppose you have one with a Bridge HB and a locking trem!! I may be able to do a deal with you, but it wouldn't be for a couple of months - sorry! Would love some more info and pics, and best of luck in the meantime! Cheers, Ben.

Hi chaps, - my 93 Special FM doesn't have i either (assuming it is a 93 - SN 335041) Looks like the inclusion or ommission is fairly widespread over the whole period ? Cheers, Ben

That is a totally fab machine ! I'm quite (VERY) jealous now! Makes my (vaguely) Flamed Cali look like a threadbare showgirl... Benner
