    Todays muse. 

    Gibson SG Classic.  Still thinking of putting a Bigsby on this.

    An alternative worth considering is the Göldo TM85C Les Trem II (used by Deusenberg). I fitted one to a customer's Tokai 335 the other day and I thought it was fabulous, much more controllable than a Bigsby and you can swap it back with no evidence of it having been fitted.

    £85 - £100 depending on where you choose to buy from.

    I’m a Bigaby fanboy (or mental patient)…nothing else will do.  Though, the Dusey radiator trem kicks the ass of a Bigsby. 
    Would install a B3 with Towner bar, so fully reversible.  Have it to hand….got 3 spare Bigsbys at the mo.

    My choices are limited so I mostly play a Baja into a Deuce.



    And when I a not playing a Baja into a Deuce I usually play a Baja into a Deuce with a cup of tea.




    A Deuce , a Tele and a cup of tea.

    I've got the same model.  And I wouldn't dream of putting a Bigsby on it.  =)  I might do one or two other mods though.

    Cool. I think I've only seen a photo of him, on here. With Jon from Feline.

    Yes mate. That's my B6.

    There's a B2 on Reverb at the moment... They have to be one of the finest looking guitars around.

    I assume it's Leah's from Aliases. Shame she's selling, but that is mad money!

    I can't help about the shape I'm in, I can't sing I ain't pretty and my legs are thin

    But don't ask me what I think of you, I might not give the answer that you want me to

    If that's 13 grand, used, how much do they cost new?

    I’ve recently fallen in love all over again with this CS Strat - a ‘Jeffocaster’ spec’d by the late Jeff Pumfrett of World Guitars to match his own ‘59 Strat.

    Not sure if he’s still making them. Which is part of reason for the pricing. That’s not even the most expensive one I’ve seen. 

    I don’t think they cost as much as that new, but there are no prices on the site.

    Jon will know better than me but I'm pretty sure he makes them still, just no rush. I played most of the early ones - especially the teles but not played any of the more recent ones. I remember try an 8 string about 20 years ago - there was a pic of me looking lost with it on the website

    That's great.  A Tele with a Strat headstock is a fine thing.  Plus block inlays.  Plus a great colour.

    Apart from appearing to be a Deluxe Thinline, what is the exact model?
