I bought a trussart in highschool (they used to be alot cheaper, i was a shift leader at macdonalds and i put off buying a car to get it) because of james iha on the cover of guitar world. I found it in the hollywood guitar center, it was one of the originals that had an actual tele headstock. It was sick but the neck was HUUUUUUGE and eventually i sold it because i wanted a car/more pussy.

I'm a big Buckland fan myself. I will one day own a thinline telecaster, and it will be due in large part to him. And that's right ILF, I listen to and enjoy Coldplay.

I'm not alone! :hug: :lol:
