Dead cities - Future sound of London

This is true but there are many on this forum that slate Fender as being old fashioned and basic and promote modern innovation as being superior. Edit: I don’t particularly like BBOT bridges, largely because they tend to have sharp edges when the action is lowered and there is no sideways adjustment on the saddles. Playing devils advocate really as some could argue that most of the greatest songs in history were written and performed on very basic instruments.

Wasn’t that the primary drive for Leo Fender moving from string through bodies to high mass bridges and culminating in the Stingray and G&L bridges?

Nope heavy relic is a heavy relic. New old stock is pristine but to period spec including paint job.

Fisherman’s blues - waterboys

It’s not that misleading it clearly states it in the marketing blurb: “They have mastered the art of ageing guitars and offer several levels of wear and tear: Closet Classic, Lush Closet Classic, Journeyman Relic, Relic and Heavy Relic. If you prefer your guitar pristine and shiny then there is the New Old Stock (NOS) option”. My reading of that would be period correct including the paint job but looks like you have a time machine and travelled back to the 50’s or whatever and bought it then. Edit: Personally I would just buy a used Vintera. Great instruments and a fraction of the cost.

Hanging on the telephone - Blondie

If there is a market for a product then from a business perspective it’s a little foolish not to cater to it. Not sure of the need to judge either the manufacturers or purchasers. Producing anything in smaller quantities costs more. I don’t get the appeal of limited edition trainers or sci-fi boxed models or stamp collecting but if it makes someone happy?

Ain’t that a shame - Fats Domino

Public Enemy No1 - Public Enemy

Sadly the impacts of global reliance on China as the world’s manufacturer is really hitting home. Hopefully lessons will be learned as it has the potential to become a huge geo-political crisis.

Electric Avenue - Eddie Grant

Define good? Personally I’d rather listen to Jah Wobble, JJ Burnel, Aston Barrett than Jaco etc

Redemption song - Bob Marley
