I'm glad that you advised us to persevere Jim - it was a good demo of the sounds available coupled with as you said, some facts regarding its use over the years.

Well John, I might let you TOUCH it on your next UK visit!

For those of you who, like me, revel in the sound of these beasts I will attempt to post some of my own recordings with my early 1962 Fender VI subsequent to this posting. Fingers crossed................
