My new CS one-off Nocaster in NOS Honey Blonde. This one changes color depending on the lighting. It's actually a "butter-like" blonde. Its fresh from the factory so I'm hoping it darkens up a bit as its a little lighter than I was wanting.

Is that the MIM version? What's the exact name of that colour? Is it the one they're still making now? Anyway, it's beautiful.

VW, it's not "tumblin' Dice" (who plays that..I'm kinda new to the country great), but it is a great song: "The Ballad of Casey Jones" by my band, Band of Annuals. Think slow tremolo, tad of analog delay,neck pup and crying pedal steel. :)

This is one of my recent builds along with my 3 year old who is a future rock star. One piece pine body with glendale bridge and Don Mare pup. I also use a set of open back Gotohs on this one.

Nice! Gotta love these Blondies!

I thought my Tele was 'Butterscotch', but after seeing this tread it has to
be 'Nocaster Blonde'.

Here's mine:



This is a 1951 NoCaster Relic:

Yeah, I think I'm in trouble with that one (she's just like me ). My wife says it karma.

Luckily my little boy is more like his mom, sweet as an angle.

We got 2 boys, and my wife sez my parents are looking down at me with #2 son daily and just laughing their aRses off.

So I know what you mean, if you know what I mean...

The EMG-T set makes it one nasty tonal mofo too. ;) The ones I toss together the fastest and easiest always seem to cook&crank. ;)


Cook & Crank

I like that. Like Yank & Bank and Shock & Awe.


I am so easily amused I often amuse myself...
