I have way more Fosse Or tickets than I need for Paris, France on the 25th. I am however ticketless for the 22nd. I am willing to swap 2 10/25 Fosse Or for 2 10/22 Fosse Or. I know, there are several ads like this one . I am able to offer either eticket or physical tickets (once they have been shipped).

Although security will be tighter on that day, be warned that La Defense at night is quite different than in the day time. Staying there after the show may be convenient but the area is empty and dull at night, and sometimes even as unfriendly as the Stade de France surroundings.

I did score many Fosse Or today for the 25th. 2 at 10.05 on France Billet (same as FNAC network), then 4 on UArena where I got them one by one at 10.16, 10.18, 10.58 then 11.13. I then got another Fosse Or at 11.54 on France Billet. They are already mostly reserved for friends but I am ready to swap a couple with Fosse Or on the 22nd. When I didn't see Fosse Or available at 10 for the 22n

Keep in mind that some anti-scalping controls are in place. Make sure the seller is ready to walk in with you in Barcelona at least, where reselling your ticket is not allowed - you even had to enter your passport number during the process. In Paris UArena reselling is allowed but not over face value. With the bar codes tickets can easily be voided by the promoter.

QuotestraycatukDid anyone get PIt at normal price? I did not get it. It appeared sold out when I went through at 10.30.

Dont print your tickets now, as you are going through the same queue management devices as the ticket sales. Printing tickets now is disturbing the sale , in a few hours you will print your tickets without waiting

QuoteTopi Lenurb: I thought the Uarena conditions state you can re-sell your ticket, but not for a greater amount than the face value: "Le billet ne pourra être revendu à un prix supérieur à la valeur faciale du billet dans le cadre de la loi du 27 juin 1919." Viagogo lost a trial against a festival thanks to this 1919 law. I actually tried to report scalpers on auction sites eb

I dont know how I managed to validate the small picture captchas in swedish on the phone but it looks like I scored pit. Much better than Paris!

Pit tickets are 221.50 face value - that's how they appear in the 750 VIP package.

QuotefirebirdWhat you should know is that in the originals the pickups that look like humbuckers have a completly different construction. Nowadays they just put standard humbuckers into the reissues, but they are hugh differences in sound. Thanks ! Very interesting! I wonder though what pickups are used for the custom shop reissues.

QuoteRoscoe So if one already owns "Exile", is this new volume superfluous? I dont own Exile (silly me!) so I cant say for sure if the photos are redundant. I would think that some are "alternate takes", most are well known and appear in Exile (I dont own it but I have seen it). Quality-wise it's clearly not in the same league.

QuoterollmopsWhat questions should I ask? I'm in no way an expert but I'd ask: - date of purchase - serial number - purchase bill - history and previous owners - CoA if applicable (Custom Shop) - has it been modified? - have the frets been changed? Are they in good shape - has it been damaged? Bumps, etc. - As many photos as you can. If the model is recent (after 80s AFAIK

Apart from the Custom Shop, are there Telecaster Custom '72 reissue made in the US ? I dont know. So I would say you have to either go with the original or a used custom shop from 2013 or 2010. The latter will take some time to track down. Although originals in black with maple necks are hard to find too.

I was at the gallery today to collect my books and they are all busy packing and shipping books. Dont worry, they didnt expect the demand and are simply busy. Julia is the owner by the way.

If you look for Custom Shops, it has been reissued in 2013 (Closet Classic) and 2010 (Limited edition).

Hi there. I own two, a "natural" '74 and a black '75. I got the '74 around 1995 for €840 in a shop, the '75 in 2014 for €2400, on the internet. The '74 has been stripped off of its finish (probably brown) and has been modified during its lifetime (it was possibily fitted with a PAF at some point), although when I bought it, it was close to the original setup

Unfortunately the Stones and every one else will probably be outsold by Chuck Berry once Voyager reaches an overpopulated area somewhere in space and Johnny B. Goode becomes an interstellar hit. It seems no Stones song was included since experts are still debating whether they should send a Mick Taylor or a Ron Wood song. Luckily there won't be a Stones/Beatles battle since EMI refused

I agree I wasn't even looking for one when it came my way, just casually browsing Telecasters on the local eBay. It was delivered just a few days before the Stones invited us for the warm up show at Bondy on Valentine day '14. It was very weirdly set up

Thank you D&G, you provided an interesting reading subject on a sleepless night. It seems though that ash is generally sligthly heavier than alder. That would be a good explanation on why my '74 ash Custom feels a bit heavier than my '75 black Custom which should be in alder. Unfortunately you can't tell for sure on the used parts of the body.

QuoteDoomandGloom I held one of Keith's 72 style customs, proably his #1. I believe it to be alder wood. More dense than ash. I'd guess it to be about 8lbs - 9lbs, which is a medium weight for a Tele. Also spent time with his white - brown neck pre-cbs Tele, That is a delicious vintage guitar. I thought Teles were usually made from ash? The paint on my '74 Custom is stripped off
