like this? gotta say i like it i havent liked many of the things lately but this is nice.Id also like to ask what is the reason for the f hole shape? Yes i know ive been a knob about the f hole (sorry that didnt word too wellscotty wrote:Yeah i know about that one.Maybe Pete wanted a orange one....
) but Have RIC decided this is the F hole shape from now on or are they just for limited Runs and one offs?I know that TP got one like this i was just wondering?
I sure wish Ric would introduce the 1993/12 to the vintage line. Maybe since the backlog situation seems to be under control they can expand it somewhat.k43rover wrote:collin wrote:scotty wrote:Didnt i read somewhere that Pete last year was in the Factory getting a 1993 guitar made for this years tour?

Factory pictures of the Petty 1993 replica below.
Interesting that they scrawled 1993/12 in this Tom Petty one-off cavity...that implies that a 6 string version could/should be factory labelled 1993/6 (e.g. the limited run for Sam Ash made back in '87 - also pictured below).

You can read some details here.I broke about 8. This was in the days these guitars cost around £250 apiece. … I was perversely proud of the fact that I was smashing up the most expensive guitar in London shops during the early ’60s when I still didn’t own a car or an apartment.
