AndyTravis Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 @bnt if it was vintera I would’ve bought one. It’s American Vintage, meaning about £1500-1700 and not “cheap”. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I also think I would like a two-pickup configuration, and right now the Sandberg-inspired (heh) Harley Benton Enhanced looks very good to me in the Natural finish: That is very tempting. I couldn't find anything that was trying to do the 'sandberg VM' thing so bought the real deal about two days ago instead. I'd be interested to see how one of those Harley Bentons plays as it may prove a useful backup. Any chance you fancy being Patient Zero for me and picking one up?

Old Man Riva Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 Not necessarily the best looking I’ve seen (that was a worn 1968 sunburst with pre TV logo and lollipop tuners) but I love this - it’s a Fender CS Masterbuilt currently at Peach Guitars (for an insane price). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Vintera isn't as sparkly as this I think, though there are some great colour schemes on the Vinteras too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krispn Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 Oh go on then... Same bass just a change of pick up. Shuker body with a PB70’s neck Lull TBird pick up (top pic) and a David Allen 1088p Reverse P in the bottom. The neck feels great and with flats feels amazingly smooth. I’ve never rubbed my hands in butter but I’ve heard it said... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maude Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 A few years ago Fender did a 60th anniversary edition P/J for Thomann which had a lovely violin burst. That was a stunner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
