Did you realize that Udet is suffering a mental breakdown?

Just thought you should know.

Dood...who the fuq is Udet?  I know Udie has resigned from the BBS.  Hopefully, he just went to Chuy's and got some grub and Shiner and will be back real soon.

Number 1 has always been a bit of a mystery.  I have seen where Rene said that it was a '59 neck and body but the pick ups where dated later, around '61 or so.

I don't think we'll ever really know until Fender releases their detailed analysis of Number 1.  

Can you imagine how much it would go for today at a formal auction like Clapton did a few years back?  I'd say 1.5 million as a good figure for it.

I have a set of Texas Specials I am going to drop into my strat someday...I've had them for 4 years and haven't replaced my stock pick ups yet.  I may do that soon though.

Yeah Got Tx specials in my SRV sid strat.
They are very HOT!

The story goes that rene took the pick ups from #1 to this Van Zandt guy and he re wound them or sometging like that.
BTW  come to find out I live about 20 miles from Rene and he is going to do a set up on my stick as soon as he gets time.

I mean how cool is that.
