Noticed this BBR not much of a Burst but looks real nice!

It looks mighty purdy! Pity it isn't a lefty!

They also had a 340/12 BBR for just a smidge more. It's enough to make you turn to scratchcards...

I should be an expert on this as I've been trawling websites for weeks before I eventually got my MB 330 (they don't have many music shops in Inverness and none with any Rickenbackers).

This page still makes me drool though:

I'd take any one of those and not complain. I'm sure I saw a gorgous lefty fireglo somewhere during my search, not that I am lefty, but that was the best part of two first prize scratchcard winnings.

Cheers,

Martin

It's not every day, but most days, at work that I tell them I'll go back to London as soon as all the Scots leave London! Until then I'll enjoy the scenery in peace

This is a bit nice. What do you reckon a good offer price for this is (not that the Mrs would allow it)?

Cheers,

Martin

A Carl Wilson for £1650? I'd take his hand off at that price! New bog standard 360's are going for near that now.

I love the way they describe the 620/12 "A tone as crisp as a frosty morning."
love the way some folk describe guitar if i had a shop that sold guitar this is what id stick on them to sell em!

so good it will blow yer grannies knickers off the line!!
As clean as flash!
So good its bad!
As bright as Mr Hawking!
More bass than yer dad in the morning!
Deep and dirty! (Steady)

and list goes on............

[(scotty)]

Quite a nice 330/12 here

Hi Martin

I used to be an English(wo)man in Aberdeen! Though the Aberdonian Scots didn't like me much. I was "too English" apparantly! In other words, I was ignorant of the politics.

Still, it didn't put me off the West coast (and Edinburgh) and Scotty is a pretty cool guy!!
