Flot-A-Tone amp of unknown year

I also own a Martin DM acoustic, which I had to leave in Wisconsin due to move (a '92 Toyota Corolla does not accommodate much stuff).

My dad owns a '57 Tele. I fear that when we visit my parents next month, Ben is going to lock himself in the basement and and do nothing but masturbate to it for 4 days straight.

I really want a telecaster as of late, and a baritone. two combined would be a wet dream.

I don't have a beard, I can't grow one... what am I holding on to? I will never be beard enough for my aluminum guitar.

I can now picture Sir Adrian getting gay with that '57. Thanks for that TMI episode.

You mean like the Subway Grande Baritone? (Scroll down and dream away.)

Sell it to me.

Bought this a few weeks ago - '96 SG All American 1



The lack of neck pickup route seems to give the guitar a much thicker sound than your normal SG.

And for some reason the 496T pickup actually sounds really good in this guitar. I usually hate that pickup. It's staying though.

Seriously, if you are interested in it PM me and I'll send you some photos and you can make me an offer. I will shop it wherever (at cost of course blah blah).

It's lovely to play and sounds really nice when not plugged in too!?!

New Tele!


I'm about to buy this Norma from a friend. The split pickups are numbered 1-4, and there is a rotary selector to chose 1&2, 3&4, 1&4 or 2&3....or you can flick the "All Pickups" switch.

(Ooohs, aaaaahs.) Damn. That is ultra-hip. (With luck, it'll have better action than my first guitar, which was a craptacular Norma acoustic.)
