    How about a Gretsch Jet Firebird style guitar?

    I saw someone suggest this elsewhere on the forum on the passing of Malcolm Young. I thought it would be a cool idea, I'd like one...

    And they’d only have to ship one of three pickups!

    Probably shipping without a box would add to the patina too...

    Then would include a pair of socks to quell the feedback.

    I'm a big fan of this guitar, but I'm afraid none of the suppliers we source from have it in their catalog (ie CNC Plans)
    Cheers,
