As one that likes the quirky and unique I was perusing guitar center during their memorial day sale and I noticed a wonderful used T-style guitar. I'm a big tele nut and this one caught my eye with a strat-strat-hb pickup array and a stunning seafoam green body/matching headstock with vintage tinted maple neck/fingerboard.
I plugged it in and wow was it amazing but I'd never heard of Saint Blues or knew what they were worth.
So I found the company online and gave em a call, this one has Kent Armstrong pickups and an Alder body originally sold for about $900 picked this one up for $500 with hardshell case.
As awesome as it is stock I am thinking about asking my guitar tech to install a G&L Dual Fulcrum tremolo system in place of the hardtail bridge and possibly doing some Lollar pickups (Blackface strat neck + middle in cream with a Single Coil for humbucker in cream in the bridge).
But in any event what do you guys think? I think it's way cool and the price was right for the perfect MD splurge.
