Never never never put your guitar on the luggage rack.
I was on the train last night, and I instinctively didn't put it on the luggage rack, instead I cling to it stroking its smooth curves.

The cheaper the Guitar - the Better.
1980 Alf perchanced on a EKO Rio Grande acoustic - been sold by an Italian shoe shop (20 quid ) - ay any rate I had three offers for this guitar such was its resonance.
Sadly lost the guitar on the way back from a party , was on the train to Ewst Norwood and realised too late that I had left the guitar on the luggage rack.

Well done Scotspine
I have a sneaky feeling your guitar may have been better, but I'll never know.
My consolation, (if this were to be the case) is that the Rickenbacker looks good.

Built my own guitar when I was a kid, uses DiMarzio X2N pickups. Never found anything that comes close to being as good.

Westbury Standard 1979-1982--Made in Japan by Matsumoka, if you are looking at Westbury Guitars you already know that though. This Westbury came with Gibson PAF Pickups from 1958 when i bought it, needless to say the Gibson PAF'S do not sell with this guitar unless you have about $10.000.00 CASH. It has a Gibson 496 and a Gibson 500 on it, they are high output Humbuckers and they have a very nice sound. This guitar has some usual dings for a 27 year old guitar but it is in very good condition with low action. For those of you that don't know Westbury Guitars it is all Mahogany with a German Carve Top and schaller tuning gears with a W written on them. Shipping to lower 48 only, with a fixed shipping rate of $40.00, it comes witha non original Westbury Case. This is a players guitar, if you want all original parts look on DUDES. The only thing that is non original is the Humbuckers and i would say these are an improvement over the Dimarzio's that come on most of them.
Mine doesn't have Gibson pickups.Last edited by BlasterBates; 25 April 2007, 11:52.

Guitars
Had a go on an Epiphone 335 yesterday, have to say the experience was pretty ordinary. Was comforting that it is not even half as good as the Rickenbacker . But what I have realised is that my cheap solid guitar is actually totally brilliant , as I was thinking of replacing my cheap guitar with a better cheap guitar. My current "cheap" guitar Westbury, cost me £100 (mind you it is over 20 years old) and is apparently hard to beat.Tags: None
