What's up guys? great forum, here's "Ms. Lindsay"

http://www.facebook.com/album.php?ai...7&l=b32fca9493

my 87 CIJ Pink Paisley Tele with a McBender and Gotoh tuners installed...

bought her that way... she plays like a dream, I'm a songwriter just bought this new laptop to record some demos finally & hopefully I'll learn some killer bender licks to show off...

or get some of you guys to help me out on my recordings!

Looks like an interesting bender, I don't think I have seen one like that.

Welcome Rusty. Real nice! I've never heard of McBender! Similar to a Glaser or McVay, I guess. How do you like it? You'll find tons of information here, and experts to help (if any is needed). Good luck with the recording!

welcome to the zoo, Rusty, we sometimes bark but seldom bite...good to have another "bender-phile" join us nuts...very nice looking rig you have there; i have the twin brother to your guitar, only without a bender....

Did you buy it off CL in Chattanooga?
If so, I tried to buy it for a couple weeks with no response.
Nice guitar.

Thanks guys, yeah its the only one I've ever seen like it... yeah I did get it off Craigslist, (sorry, guess i beat you to it) i think he was in the process of moving from Chattanooga... i couldn't really afford it at the time but was looking for a paisley and a B-bender.. so knew i had to have it...
It plays/feels great... i don't know any bender licks yet but ill change that soon..
will probably order B-bender 101 and that other double dvd i've seen listed on ebay a few times if i can find it.. (and i'm open to sugestions)

yea i was wondering if maybe it was an older prototype to the McVay?

Anyone know? or is that another company who did this

Thanks for the Welcome!

Rusty

That word is offensive to many members here..even when used in a Steve Earle quote...we have a world wide membership....

If you do a search there are ample threads here regarding beginning b bender licks and tricks...the A sus2 and D7-D moves give you alot of mileage.
