I feel I am going to sound like a teenager! So, in my best Keanu Reeves voice "Woah! Cool!"

That really is going to be fantastic

Hey Roberto, what can I say? Once Z bought it and whacked a big ass hole in it, all bets were off.

As a side note, it is believed that only 11 - 13 of the Brazilian Rosewood McCarty models had P90's.

IMHO, that is one of the most beautiful guitars on the planet. I felt the same way about Greg Jones' R8 when he put double-creams in it (It's mine now ). I love subtle beauty in a guitar...

Well, I have two. But both have been 2Tek'd, and both are being re-painted.

As long as you don't care about what the top looks like. If you really care about cosmetics and are particular, it will take a very very long time.

But they do come up routinely. At least every three months or so. Have 3.5 grand waiting to be safe ... then just patiently watch. You'll find one.
