New Fender Amps give off this addictive smell I noticed it first at high school and nothings changed , its a nice smell and other amps dont do it , is Fender perfuming the new amps with something. Have you ever noticed the smell of a new Fender Amp?

Oh heck yeah...

I just bought the Joe Strummer tele and it is the first new guitar that I bought which did NOT smell like all other new guitars. Very strange. Must be the beating er.. I mean relic-ing.

Nah keep em away from me. I was contemplating selling my dog to the local kebeb/pizza takeaway, but i bit him and he's far too stringy.

I was wondering if the pleasnat smell of the Strummer Tele was because its a nitro finish cos of the relic'ing. Nitro smells better than other finish's, like peardrops. I looked and its urethane, thats a cracking relic job on a urethane body.
