Love London Transport AND Guitars?

William Williamson

Well,  here's the very specific solution to that issue:

The limited edition Tube map version features an engraved neck plate, TfL logo on the back of the headstock, three single coil pickups and a maple neck alongside the Tube map design, recognised across the world.

I like it!

I like the idea of the tube, but not actually using it. As someone who commutes to London, I avoid it.

It'll stop working half-way through a song, force you to move to the other side of the room and then make you wait ten minutes before you start the next one.

It'll refuse to work if you play music it doesn't like.

All songs will have to be announced two minutes before they start.

On Friday and Saturday nights someone will vomit on it.

I live in London and I despise the tube. Ergo I would not like this guitar.

The tube is unavoidable in London, but so far I have avoided buying a Strat.

I like the tube, but then I'm Welsh, I relish anywhere where strangers don't talk to me.

Love or hate the tube itself, the design of the tube map is a great piece of work.

That makes my eyes hurt!  Don't tell me - it's got rail p/ups, tracks well in the studio, but you have to wear platform shoes when playing it.  Great for playing tracks like tunnel of love,  hear my train a coming, and crazy train, or anything by the velvet underground.

I guess the guitar would be a legitimate inclusion if you bear the Queen Mary revision.

Quick pop quiz .. what is the only tube station named after a football team...and what was the stations original name?

SRich

Arsenal was originally called Gillespie Road till 1932...........

Shark_Eyes

They've got one on display in the shopping bit of St James' Park station, I guess because it's the TFL headquarters.
Looks pretty good in the flesh.
