An original, an OFC, and a RI.

Very sweet.

How about some sound comparisons.

Love the color of the Original's neck.

Simply Loverly! Nice side by side color comparison of the original and the OFC. Is there any burst on the OFC? If so, it's hard to see in the picture.

This really shows the difference between the burst of the original and the lack of burst in the OFC. I can't really see much color change in mine, other than what shows from the gold flecks.
I know there was a great deal of variation of the burst in the originals. Dave's may be one where it was more pronounced.

Dear Dave,

You know I just have your best interests in mind. But it looks like the one on the left has a narrow neck ... that'll never do for you. You need to send that one to me. I'll even pay for the shipping. But please, do not rip the preamp guts out before you ship it. Thanks, I appreciate it.

Your best pal,

Bobbo

Very nice, Dave.

Has anything ever materialized on that OFC tour of Dave's place...?

Dear Dave,

Please do not ship that to Bobbo - waaay too much of a risk. I'll come by, pick it up and drive it to him, k?

Your even bester pal,

He has a guard dog now. Cowboy boots and earplugs are recommended for ankle and ear protection.

If you look at the pic of the OFC slothead on Dave's registration site, you can see more of the burst. The top is actually a pretty solid blue with gold sparkle around the edges. It gives it a bit of a "dusky" look...

Keep in mind that the top finish on the SlotHead has "aged" for 30-odd years . . . and that bleu guitars tend to age somewhat strangely in general . . .

Tequila Bedspins.

Which is also an awesome local band name. The lead singer could do a good David Clayton Thomas....so why he was singing Talking Heads I'll never know

Dave,
I'm going to the Time Warner Cable store in the mall today after work to get their triple play for cable, internet and phone.I can see how you must be on cloud nine. My oldest son Mike can't wait for me to get out of work. He also got the new Hairy Potty delivered to me in the drug store.

Okay, . . in your case, they would be "blew" guitars . . .
