The Few, the Proud, the Cowpokes. (official Fender Cowpoke club)

[Calico]

I had to sell mine due to layofff. Do I still get to be in the club - or am I out.

[mjac28]

I would say so sorry to here about that

[Calico]

Thanks, I appreciate it. Maybe I could keep my number in hopes that I'll be back in someday? You know, "Once a cowpoker, always a cowpoker".

Would you happen to have any pictures of your SB tortoise? I have been thinking of getting a tortoise PG for mine but I have never seen one mounted - I don't think they ever came with them so I think they have to be ordered as a replacement from Jeannie Pickguards, which is the only place I have seen them. Thanks.

I purchased my Tobacco Sunburst in '95.
Lent it out to a friend who managed to loose a top knob within 9 hours.
Last year I made a Ding in his Dingwall. Fate.

Cheers

Beautiful Cowpokes forever

[brando28]

It took months but the tuners arrived today so now the mod is all done. Only the neck body and pickguard/control cavity guard, are original.

Nice!!

Sweet! I've always thought black bridge and tuners would look great on a red 'poke. Way more character than the original hardware scheme. Are those Duncan Quarter Pounders?

That's what I did with mine back on page 11 of this thread except I have the Ivory Cowpoke. Looks great with the black hardware. I threw Nordstrand pups and an Audere preamp into mine though and it kicks ass.

[mjac28]

I like the black hardware looks killer

Yea, I like the passive set up more.

[luckykrieg]

Is this club still active? I have a Cowpoke I have customized. I'll post pics soon.

[Rip Topaz]

Please do!!!

[mjac28]

Yeah that sounds nice I would like to see it also.
