Somebody went to a lot of trouble.

I think it was worth it.
Thanks for the chuckles.

Awesome...

FYI...YouTube here of Slash actually holding and playing a Telecaster...and providing a musical score to the Tele-tubbies...just a coincidence?...comes in at minute 7:45


Somebody has that signed guitar...Robbie Roberston, Gordon Lightfoot and Slash...wtf.

For the Slash thing ... Yeah, Gibson must have loved that considering that Slash is the "Gibson Brand Amabassador". Did you notice how Slash seems to purposefully turn so the camera angle has a bad angle on the guitar he is playing? Likely, not a coincidence. As for the odd grouping of signers on it, it is likely the odd group of guitar players that appeared on that goofy show. Just guessing...

Big thanks for that post stratmangler.

It had me going for a time. The Anderton’s gang are always entertaining and good for a laugh. Being April Fool’s I suspected they were up to their typical shenanigans. Wrong! :lol:
What a surprise. Kudos to Fender for contributing to Teenage Cancer Trust and for bringing it to the public’s knowledge with help from Anderton’s. Fantastic.

As for the guitars themselves, it sure opens the doors to the recent room full of questions being thrown about these days.

Good addition to the thread, BasementBob.

Interesting times. :!:
