What a journey. Prudence (foreground) has been through a lot. She's been excellent from the day I brought her home and after a few cosmetic changes as well as electronic, her she is. The factory single coils were replaced with a single humbucker but it didn't work out for me. So now she is refitted with triple rails and despite a small buzzing issue, I love the sound of her voice more than ever.

The Tele is now all gold, minus the switch tip. That's a small detail but soon to be fixed. The name? At the outset, he was Sid. Pink Floyd fans understand. But after such a dramatic visual change, the only name truly fitting is Goldfender. Fleming fans will understand. And I suppose so will Austin Powers fans.
