Will you have it with you at London
Part of the reason for getting this is to have a comparison and make sure i'm not veering too far off vintage spec with them - but comparing them, i'm very happy!
99% sure i'll bring it to Kempton, i'm also in talks with a dear pal of mine to see if he'll bring down another tasty morsel so there might be a "Tantalising Twin TV Treat" on my stand!
Now you're talking my language @john_r !!

Having just read the article in the Guitar mag it really puts that guitar in to perspective.
I thought it was a great read about someone following their heart and making a life they choose rather than the life that is thrown at us. Kudos.
All the best with your guitar making.

I can never make my mind up if I prefer TV yellow or sunburst on a junior.

I had an all-original ‘57 Special years ago - lovely sounding guitar, but I hated the way it looked. I knew refinishing it would be silly, even back then when they weren’t worth that much... so I sold it, which was probably more silly .
I would have really liked it in a nice vintage cherry.

I think TV Yellow, especially this early wheat colour, when worn, is one of the coolest colours on a Gibson ever!
Cherry on a single cut just looks wrong, to me. On a double cut though, it's another stone cold classic.
Different strokes for different folks and all that

Yeah I agree cherry is for SG’s or DC juniors.
Sheesh, you poor poor man...
