    What do ya think about this one?

    I'm kind of liking it! I can't afford it, but I like the looks of it.

    I like the idea those. Having played one, I like it a lot.


    That tailpiece is an improvement over the Gibson trapeze type they use to use. It came about 1/2" away from the bridge.
    That's still seems a little close.

    I'd buy one if it meant people would start calling me "T-Bone."

    Or Jimmy Reed, which, IMHO, is a better name for a sax player.

    I've got a friend from Boston area jams who makes a perpetually righteous noise on the black Tuxedo version of that guitar through either a tweed deluxe or a tweed pro clone:

    They have one in black on sale as a store demo.

    I don't remember what they wanted for the black one I played.
    The differences are pretty slight. Is the price of Delux, delux'ed compared to the standard finishes.

    I think the black is most Tuxedo'y.

    Unless it's banged up, that one's a nice deal!

    The one I played was, I think, $8-900'ish, new in a NYC shop.
    Pretty fair price, I thought, for a really neat guitar.

    i'd love to have a bass version of that, but i'd want mine in a burnt orange sparkle.
