Members Brian Krashpad Posted June 24, 2007 Members Share Posted June 24, 2007 You all are the only pink one around here w/ a P-90 to boot. Although, iirc, forumite Chairborne had the Jay Turser version of the above guitar as well. I believe he may've subsequently sold it though.

Members DavyJonesLocker Posted June 24, 2007 Members Share Posted June 24, 2007 Many years ago I coulda gotten a late 70s/early 80s PINK Dean Cadillac (before Dean became vintage) for a song - from a one man vintage and used gear shop. On the inventory list (pre-internet) it said something like Dean Cadillac, PINK. Get this thing outta my life for just $250 ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Brian Krashpad Posted June 24, 2007 Members Share Posted June 24, 2007 {censored} Bri, I love that Brownsville:eek: A pink guitar called BROWNSVILLE....nudge nudge, eh, nods as good as a wink to a blind bat eh? nudge nudge Haha, is she a goer then? Like to take pictures?Anyhow, thanks.That Brownsville was a total fluke. Was out buying some Cub Scout uniform supplies (of all things) with my son a few months ago, and the uniform place was a couple blocks from a pawn I'd previously gotten a fair deal ($175 USD) on an Epi G400 SG a couple years back.So I figured I was in the neighborhood...It was set up kinda badly, such that it had a pretty bad rattle. Asked the pawnbroker to borrow a screwdriver and fixed that just by raising one side of the bridge a bit.It was tagged at $150 USD. I queried (don't! ...) "How much you asking for the Brownsville?" And the clerk comes over and says, sotto voce, "I'll give it to you for a hundred even."Ka-ching! SOLD! At that time I didn't own and had never owned a semi (even a cheapo bolt-on), plus it has 3 alnico toaster-top singles (middle pup RW/RP!), another configuration I didn't have, so it was a perfect fit both budget-wise and feature-wise.Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good.

Members Save The Pine Weasel Posted June 24, 2007 Members Share Posted June 24, 2007 A Bigsby?I'm sorry, I can't support that.If you want a vibrato, do it right and put a Floyd on it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members 3 Headed Moses Posted June 24, 2007 Members Share Posted June 24, 2007 Seriously though, I do like the second one better. Imagining it in surf green gives me a tingly feeling. I saw a Dillion SG in surf green once. It was beautiful. I waited too long and someone else got it. Damn procrastination monster... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I can see they're a Sam Ash brand or summat? Yeah, they're a Sam Ash house brand of some sort. Not real common, at least not down here in Florida (iirc the Sam Ash chain started in New York). The pickups are actually very cool, low-output with a lot of character, and with the middle one reverse-wound/reverse polarity the 2 and 4 positions are dead quiet. But even at 1, 3, and 5 they're not too noisy. My bandmate's USA Strat makes as much if not more noise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members cincy_cosmo Posted June 25, 2007 Members Share Posted June 25, 2007 IMHO: My generation (baby boomer) thought pink was a girlie color. GenX and younger people do not carry that stereotype. So pink is OK... I'm not a big fan of pink guitars, but, Frets stickered guitar looks cool though, so maybe pink is a good base color to me. I wouldn't carry it into a biker bar gig though...that would just scream, "pick on me". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members blueshawk1 Posted June 25, 2007 Members Share Posted June 25, 2007 I like thte Lp styled one. I'd prefer it in a different color, but I could live with the pink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SgMaster Posted June 25, 2007 Members Share Posted June 25, 2007 is burny making semi-hollow LP's with f-holes now because if they are I NEED ONE. I don't even care what color either! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Edward Posted June 25, 2007 Members Share Posted June 25, 2007 Both look like good guitars. The pink makes the SG look a little 80s for my tastes.... I'm not quite so sure it works for me. The LP looks fab, though. Definitely second the idea of it in Surf Green.... I also love the idea of pink sparkle on it. I remember epi did a line of sparkle top LPs in the early 90s - they looked fab, the blue and green the best, but unfortunately they didn't do em lefty, so I never got one.I'd jump on something like that LP, I know it's totally not a vintage design, but those LPs always put me in mind of the late 50s - like a sort of baby Gretsch 6120 - i think it's the semi-hollow body plus the Bigsby that does it. Nice. I'd much rather that than a figured top - I'm just a solid colour guy. Looks really hot rod - you'd need a pink 56 Caddy to go with it.
