Lex Luthier Posted December 3, 2003 Report Share Posted December 3, 2003 Are we allowed to enter more than one instrument? The woman I sold a wicked fretless bass to is interested in another one and she's bringing it by on the weekend so I can get measurements and stuff, but I'll also finaly get some digital pics of it.

westhemann Posted December 4, 2003 Report Share Posted December 4, 2003 i love the mahogany tele.really classic and modern all at once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theQuestioneer Posted December 4, 2003 Report Share Posted December 4, 2003 now we have two teles to follow up... a tele. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drak Posted December 4, 2003 Report Share Posted December 4, 2003 That Mahogony Tele is drop-dead gorgeous Ben, I LOVE it. As much as I HATE relic'ing and relic'ers (just my personal opinion folks) ...I think that Tele would look sooooo cool with some old, aged-looking, ambered-out lacquer-worn neck on it. The body has a very very comfortable 'pick me up and strum me' quality to it, I am VERY drawn to it like that, ...but the neck has a very 'new' look to it. I wish it had a more natural ambered look. It's kind of like the body is of an aged, older mature man, and the neck is more of a boy/teenager. Doesn't that sound completely retarded? Beautiful guitar man, the natural binding kicks MAXIMUM ASS, and you did a completely awesome job of showing people the natural, absolutely Raging beauty of Mahogony. The pickguard is really elegantly done for a Tele, and compliments the natural binding perfectly. God I bet that thing ROCKS! I'd love to hear it. Very very sweeeet!

www Posted December 4, 2003 Report Share Posted December 4, 2003 I think I'm embarrassed. My strat doesn't even hold a unlit candle to those dratted teles. They are both excellent. Maybe next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bowser Posted December 4, 2003 Report Share Posted December 4, 2003 just want to comment about entering two instruments - though Brian says you can do this, the way i figure it, your best bet would probably be to enter only one. Two instruments, especially if they end up somewhat "equal" in the voting, would spread out the voting a lot and could make them both lose. I would probably pick the one I liked the most and thought the members would like, and keep the other one for another month. I don't think any of us will run out of months anytime soon...

Guest Litchfield Custom Gutars Posted December 4, 2003 Report Share Posted December 4, 2003 The bass is in....pics asap. Gonna get pics on CD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I'll post pics of the bass so ya guys can see it, but I'll enter it next month. More questions: If someone's instrument wins Guitar of The Month, are they allowed to enter that guit again? If someone's guit DOESN'T win can they enter it again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
