Title: Betty Lives (NGD)!
Post by: raulduke on February 20, 2012, 11:32:21 AM
I got my eternal Micawber the other week. She is called Betty.

I am in love with this guitar; its perfect in every way (IMO of course  ;))

I asked for it to be lightly aged rather than relic'd which the builder did to perfection.

It sounds and plays like a dream; I am one happy customer!

Surprisingly my favourite setting is the middle position with the bridge and neck pickups in circuit; not normally my favourite on a tele but with this it sings!

If you are based in the UK/EU I would recommend Eternal guitars. His prices are really reasonable for the work he does.

Hope you like the pics:

Very nice! Love it. My 77 Tele looks very similar.

Interestingly it's the same with my flat50/mule loaded Baja. The middle pos is just brilliant.

Pity about Ralph's white pickguard and neck pup, otherwise his guitar would be perfect too ;)
