| | | | I've noticed an increased interest in vintage MIJ gems lately,
but no one follows through and buys the vintage gem, and the price is nice.
What's wrong with you guys? You don't know what you're missing.

Vintage or not my MIJ crap is staying with me.

| | | | Great stuff.
Imo Teisco made some of the coolest knobs of all time.
A lot of those old MIJ single coils sound perfect for 50s-60s music.
Aria ProII = badass w/o trying to copy the big boys.
