Gary Busey's looking a lot better these days but he could do with a hair stylist.

neat.
i don't know anyone with a bassVI. That might be the first time i've actually heard one demo'd, kid is all Bootsy.
i was thinking "that shop looks like a place where i couldn't afford to buy anything."
$14k says my instincts are right.
(Christopher, also)
I've been to one World's Fair, a picnic, and a rodeo, and that's the stupidest thing i ever heard come out a pair of headphones.

It definitely is a very expensive shop, they do have some great stuff in there though, for sure.

I got my Daphne ‘63 Jazzmaster there. It is an expensive shop, but they do have primo gear. They price the high end stuff accordingly, but the player condition is priced in line with other shops. I used to go in a few times a year just to check out their vintage Gretsch selection. They had a really nice reasonably priced Burgundy Mist Jaguar a few years ago, but the Strats and Les Pauls are spendy.

Wow. I assumed it was Oly, which is cool enough. but blonde/ash makes that one really special!

Yeah, that didn't sink in, when I watched it first time around.
So (without watching it again as I'm in bed) is this considered a custom colour?

I have always seen it considered as such.

Same here, in my book unless it's a Telecaster, Blonde is a custom colour
