I know I'm part of a small (but growing and passionate) niche on this one, but those of us looking to capture that 60's tone and vibe would love to see these!
You can thank me later. :wink:

Yeah, I've got a set. Unfortunately, I'm in a hard rock/grunge kind of band, and we tune DGCF. Light tension TIs just don't get it done. I absolutely love the tone on those, though! If I ever leave this band, the TIs go right back on! Or if I get a 4001c64 (that'll be the day!), it can be the beneficiary.
