im craving...

....WITCH HATS!!!!

Anyone know who makes a very good late 60's style repro Witch Hat? i dont want those generic looking allparts ones that are all over ebay and anyone trying to sell their originals is out of their mind in terms of price....

aged would be cool too...just a lil pantina.

Buy a Strat and you'll get some for free...


Just kidding... but I agree, if they're for your new Sonex they would be perfect on that guitar.

Re: im craving...

Hey if you like them, and they make the guitar, "yours", then I say happy new knob day.

Seriously, some of the coolest guitars are those that aren't quite right. Knobs don't match, or are missing. Paint is chipped, stripped, and or dinged up. Weird paint jobs. Those are the guitars I like to see. I think that's pure mojo.
