I like how all the lap/table steels are shown first in the little drawings at the bottom... As if the tele, strat, and p bass were all just an afterthought!

Yeah, what was Leo thinking? Did he later realize he introduced a meme that would outlive him, confusing AM with FM?

Well, the amps have tremolo, but of course, Leo had them labeled as having 'vibrato'. At least he was consistently inconsistent.

If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.

Magnatone should have sued when they had the chance.

The misspelling of receptacle as receptical is notable. The word "new" appears six times in this old ad, and "revolutionary" appears thrice.

I like that fact that they proudly state that its "synchronized". Imagine how overly complicated it would have been if you had to move each string individually. With the exception of a B-Bender is there any non synchronized "Tremolo" systems?

I like the atom logo that can now be found in the vaporizer amps.

"perfect pitch" Does it mean the "live tremolo action" doesn't just hang on there all bent and stuff?
