for $350 i'd have to say that a T-60 is still a bargain compared to current day $350 guitars. the electronics and the fretwork are top-notch, and the electronics were so clever that they may still be too advanced for the regular spud on the street. they are, however, about as heavy as wearing the door of a GMC pickup truck around your neck, so bear that in mind. i'd totally buy a T-60 if i was rolling in unlimited piles of fuck-you money, because if they fit your style they're great guitars you can still get for sickeningly cheap prices, but i'd only play it sitting down. but then, i'm OLD.

A dude is selling a t-15 for 365 Euro on the german bay. And the dude is infamous for selling fake / pieced together stuff. Haha!

Incoming: EQD Sound Shank. after dithering about the idea forever i've decided to try something in a Buzzaround clone/variant to fill that hole in the fuzz array between the infuriated Rat-esque silicon tones i use the Algal Bloom for and the mad synthy drone und drang of the Great Wall, and the used Shank is the most affordable by a factor of +0.5.

Christ, for those prices i'd buy both of the Peaveys. use one for standard and one for tunings. yee-fucking-haw. and then you can really mess people's minds up by explaining that they were built in Mississippi. you could even Sonic Youth them...they're made of solid--and i mean SOLID--ash, and you could probably do prepared guitar stuff and beat on them with baseball bats without them showing much effect other than some finish checking.

The Sound Shank is a very cool pedal. I'll have another one when I have more money (so I might never have one :facepalm: )

Get it, I have (1981), I love. Amazing pickups, there not humbuckers but extremely large single coils, they love fuzz and all kinds of dirt. It's a pretty light guitar too.
