Extremely rare Strat and absolutely superb! My buddy got his in 1982 and I have to add, it was the best strat I’ve heard.

Good luck,

Andy

That's all one ever really needs (I would say wants, but there are those of us who are easily led and have GAS. By those, I mean me).

Gas is a disease unfortunately lol I think if I had some funds, I’d like to get a Marshall JCM800 2x12 combo. Those rock! 

The Bugera is awesome and everything I need in a clean valve amp. The Subzero cabs are well made - not to full on pro guitarist standards - and sound good for 1x10 30w Celestion drivers. I’m a tinkerer so a seasoned pro would probably find fault in the entire set up. However, that little set up gives me the tone I want

Not yet, but it's been in my Amazon wishlist for a while! 

It’s an awesome read mate The journey back into 50/60/70s rock history is just amazing  

I feel so honoured to have known Chris Adams and have my book signed by him. String Driven Thing were an amazing outfit. 

Jimi Hendrix did indeed use a borrowed Tele

have you read the book in the attached image? 

My rig at cost of £280 and man, it rocks!!

 You're among many Basschat friends here.

Tone beats chops everyday for me too, which explains a lot about some of my favourite guitarists: Eric Johnson, Robben Ford...

Eric Johnson is awesome and when you think about tone and feel, BB King has it all

Does anyone have an affinity tele with a string through body?

What a difficult topic to pick from! 
 

I literally have hundreds of guitarist I like and will feel sad for those I’d miss out.

my favourite is definitely Nuno Bettencourt. Next, Andy Timmons and the hundreds of others would be number 3 but … special mention and recommendation goes out to Paco De Lucia. 

Hi all, a fellow basschatter re-entering the world of guitar playing.

Played guitar since I was 14 but never took it seriously, simply enjoyed playing along with AC/DC.

I’ll never be any good but I enjoy playing immensely and for me, it’s all about the tone
