    So....I’m walking through Guitar Center, looking at amps today. (AMPS!)

    When I saw her, hanging in the corner behind all the other forsaken and discarded girls. She didn’t make a sound, but it was like she calling to me, and only me. My wife sure didn’t hear her, lol.
    Then I saw the price $229 A quick look-over(not a scratch on her),check of the intonation, and played a little. Yep, you’re with us! Let’s go home!
    The p-90 sounds killer, can’t get enough of that TONE.
    I know Yamahas aren’t for everyone, but I think they offer amazing value for the money. Such underrated guitars.
    Tusq nut, satin finish neck, Grover locking tuners...

    Pretty cool.
    I was just messing with my zoom 9002 earlier with some headphones. Need to order a battery or 2 from the guy that redid the daughter board on both.
    Would be great to take out during camping.

    Many & varied
    Check the Classic Player line. I'm not sure of specs, but the neck feels thinner than modern Teles. I have a Classic Player 60s model that does well for my chording hand. I have scar tissue in my left palm from a childhood burn, so I have to be careful with guitar necks. The Classic Player is the only tele I can play without pain. The Classic Vibes are no slouches. The necks feel pretty good, and craftsmanship is consistent. Most of the metal is probably pot metal, but that stuff is replaceable.

    The ad reads pretty legit. Has a photo of himself next to BB. Definitely by the looks, it was taken during his last days.

    Was supposedly his personnel assistant.

    I should be doing the same
    But I'm putting all my tax money to a CC, so I figured I'd reward myself. :)

    After a phone call to Sam ash last Sunday, $629
    I played one at a shop that wouldn’t budge from $799 on a floor model. It sounds sweet as hell. It is the blonde edition.
