Ferenc, yeah I remember those guitars well. In fact, they were the impetus for
my idea. If
there were a stack of letters expressing interest in a production model of a
Fender surf
guitars, maybe Fender would see its way to making some (even if only a special
run of a
couple hundred). I am less concerned with what goes into them than that they
would
actually be made. We can assume people would modify them to suit their tastes.
So, I agree, the details would best be left to someone at Fender...although they
might
entertain suggestions.
I think, naysayers aside, it's worth everyone contributing a short letter
expressing an
interest in a reasonably-priced surf guitar based on Fender's already famed surf
trio. All
anyone has to lose is the stamp.
