  • Man, I really like that. Retro and modern - hard to get that right, and this does it superbly.

    How does it play and sound Mark ?

    @Wazmeister ;;  has a great solidity to it the neck is wonderful a full C , super smooth, rolled fingerboard etc...its the most responsive, nuanced playing experience i have come across to date...the Throbak in the neck reveals so much detail epic pickup, absolutely smitten with it so far....be for sale within a week at this rate:)

  • That is great. I nearly went for one but it was too much money to purchase unseen. Do you know which neck profile it is and how does it compare to that other fella's Alt TPro?

    neck is fullish c and actually feels similar to the Suhrs neck...this guitar feels better to me but that doesnt really mean anything, alt t pro is a great guitar...this one feels older, and one thing that is a lot better is the throbak humbucker, different league from the thornbucker

  • I’ve never played a ‘real’ Gustavsson - only one that was made by the Premier Builders Guild a few years back. Have to say - that looks like a wonderful guitar!

  • I had throbaks in a Collings and agree they are pretty darn good.
    I think this might be the only guitar that could come up in the classifieds that would make me seriously consider selling my last two guitars to fund the purchase.

    Not a fan or the scratchplate shape personally, but apart from that it looks really good.  Really love the colour of the hardware & the worn neck.
