Wow! Two more Melbournebackers! Welcome Adam - I sincerely hope our growing Melbourne community can get together en masse in the New Year.

And to you, Alan, Looking forward to meeting you when the opportunity arises. My mother (God bless her soul) emigrated in 1948 - from Belfast. Hope you won't hold that against me!

Drinks on St. Pats day would be terrific!!



PS. Feel free to email me anytime at my profile address.

My V63 is an 1988 model, so I can't comment on later models, but the neck is nice, thin and strong too. And it sounds great with D'Addario Chromes flats!

An 88 should also have the 500k ohm tone pots which will give it more treble bite ... A few years ago I had a chance to pick up a used 4001v63 for $700 at Guitar center ... I should have done it ...
