Assumptions are stupid and dangerous and most of the time wrong!
What makes you think I'm a collector? You don't know nothing.
Good for you roadster. Great find.
Is it still for sale
Hello King Bee.Yes its still for sale. You can contact me by mail: javi_lg_85@yahoo.es

You have misunderstood me and assumed I think you are a collector. My point was that a stock (unpainted) 59 ES-335 is out of reach for most players due to the collectors market. Painting one would be a statement of "I don't care about the collectors market" and will do my art on any guitar. peace
My guitars. And saving up for a new telecaster right now....
Yes, the LP special is my first guitar With P90`s. And I love it!! A real rockaxe!!
The red one is a Vester. One of my first guitars. Sounds great and nice to play.
I tune both open G (Lp Special and the Telecaster thinline) and standard tuning. The Goldtop is my main guitar for standard tuning. My next tele will also be played in standard tuning. One LP and one tele for both standard tuning and open G...
If one would do so it also would be a statement "I don't care about destroying history (and losing 25+ grand or so".)
I use a Fender deVille 212. Mainly because it`s what I bought some years ago. I like the clean sound and think it takes pedals well. I do not like the dirty channel and never use it. I have been thinking about buying a new amp (Vox ac30 etc) but I kind of have got used to this one and with some nice pedals I get much of the sound I want out of it...
Ahh...my pics were gone...so here is one again..Zemaitis Pearl Front made in Japan
---------------------------------------------
Shattered !!!

Yeah, a bit.
Makes since if you go by the Fuzztone -> Tonebenders -> Fuzz Face lineage.
Yeah, it's the THR10C running through Logic Pro, so my possibilities for tone are huge.
I've been contemplating sticking a humbucker in the neck á la Micawber as the body is already routed, but I'm struggling to find a pickguard routed for one, with 5 screws, rather than the standard 8. Also I thought about setting up a Broadcaster blend pot, but I don't know if it's worth it.
This was the best model I could afford at the time, but I've been really pleased with it.

By the way: Quite a jewel you've gotten there, Roadster!

Thank you, but these look also pretty cool.
Amazing collection. With the exception of the LP Special there's not a single guitar there I haven't lusted after at one point or another. You're a man of wealth and taste, evidently.
May I ask what the black Telecaster is? It looks a little like the Rosewood Telebration they bought out the other year, but I can't see any grain on it. Is it Jimmy Page-inspired?
Talk about your favorite band.

Fenders make great pedal platforms. Get a Vox inspired pedal and rock out!!!

EHX has been releasing a bunch of dirt pedals, lately. If anyone missed it, here is the video for the Satisfaction Fuzz pedal. Their take on the Gibson Meastro Fuzztone FZ-1
I think it sounds close enough, for the government. I'd like to hear it in a band mix.

It sounds a bit like the Fuzz Face, doesn't it? Same kind of depth to it.

Nothing humble about it. It is a nice guitar. Are you plugged into a Yamaha THR10?
There are some nice Squiers out there. Upgrade the electronics and one could have a decent guitar.
Every brand puts out gems/stinkers in each line. Have to play them to get the feel. Atleast in my experience.

These are from my phone, with poor lighting, but they'll have to do...the amplifier is a Fender Ramparte, one of the pawn shop ones they bought out last year. Very nice, although the lack of reverb is kind of a drag.
1) '57 MIJ Stratocaster, about ten years old. I bought it late last year - it came stock with Texas Specials, which at some point I'll get rid of and replace with some sort of stack/rail humbucker:
2) 2006-ish Mexican Standard Telecaster, both my first proper guitar and the one I learned to play on. Since I got the Strat it's been in various open tunings for slide work. It's not in terribly good shape and needs a lot of work done - new neck, new hardware, new electronics. I'm going to put the neck humbucker from a Gretsch Electromatic in it soon:
