    That album has no business existing in 1981. Humans just haven't progressed far enough by then. It makes no sense.

    The super deluxe of the most anachronistic album ever created came in. Have we already been over how much I dig overwrought productions like this? Pretty excited to check out the OG concert.
  5. Yo, if I don't get a low SN copy then no more rides in cars that throw bullshit lights on the ground.
  6. Yes. And electronics, and neck, bridge type, headstock type, and wood type, etc., etc. It shares more important features with Les Pauls than any guitar shares with Telecasters.
  7. "...that's defining for sound." Cosmetic tops don't change the guitar family, but things like neck setting type into solid-body wood type does. V's and Explorers couldn't be more Les Paul if you threw binding on them.
  8. On which of these planets do V's share anything with Strats from a design perspective? Because on this planet they share almost everything that's important and defining for sound with Les Pauls.
  9. But Flying Vs and Explorers ARE Les Paul copies that further prove the point...
  10. Or because they already have. (And doing so was such a low bar that it was done almost immediately.) I'll dip out now, just wanted to let Doug know he's not the only one on this lonely hill.
  11. Telecasters, yes, Telecaster design elements incorporated into other guitars, no. The number of Strat copies, and more importantly guitars that steal Strat design concepts, takes a chest dump on Tele numbers of the same. The reasons for this truism abound. Telecasters are a cold war relic of blunt design.
  12. The elements that typify Telecaster design are the most un-copied elements in the history of music (even within the company that created the thing). Can't argue with science.
  13. The most un-Tele in existence. Side note: There is a Custom Shop Page Mirror Tele Signature (set up as a blackguard) at the Guitar Center in Spring for $2k complete with all that cool case candy. It's got me thinking that if any series of unfortuante events lead me to owning a Tele, that might be the one...
  14. "Goofy little weenie headstock..." lol Preach. Teles are like the Devo of guitars imo. Yeah, there's obviously something interesting going on but they are also dorky as fuck. There's a metric shit ton of cool dudes who play Teles, but none of them are cool because they play Teles - they're cool in spite of it. And looking cool is half the reason to play guitar. Coincidentally, this is also why PRS sucks. Leo knew he could do better, so he did.

    Eric Johnson put a bunch of signed stuff on his web store recently. Among them are some double LPs like these two classics. I've never picked up Ah Via Musicom on vinyl (3 digital versions of it, obv.) so him offering autographed copies of the LE gold vinyl version was like he was speaking to my heart.
  16. CBS News affiliate WCCO just found this little dude at teacher wages protest during 1970 in Minneapolis hiding in their archives. Spoiler: he will not grow much taller than this.

  18. Went down a Weather Report rabbit hole and eventually came across this guy. Circular breathing is witchcraft. In case you haven't:
  19. NPD Aaron Thorpe doesn't miss with his designs, but he's gifted when it comes to fuzz imo (His Muffroom/Fallout Cloud is best triangle on the market imo). The last time he collected enough Germanium transistors to do a run of pedals I missed out and now the OG Veteran Germanium fuzz gets stupid prices on Reverb. So when he announced he had enough to do a run of Tone Bender fuzzes I did one of those sight unseen things. It arrived today and now the hard part - deciding what to kick off the board. Some reviews: Maybe just need a bigger board...
  20. Don't care about Swift slander, whatever, but the Stevie part is funny...
  21. What a cool find. Gibson Factory Tour shot in 1967:
  22. An Armada will be part of the collection someday, even though I'm more of a Cheeto dude. They all dropped off the face of the Earth it seems. Shame. That black/grey number is all the sex.
  23. Fuck around and find out vibes.
