The Deep South Mascot. Used to be Southside’s mascot so i’m returning the favour. This mutant is going to have to be beaten from my hands. It’s the DS Vintage pet. A total mutant.
Its actually a Norma Burns Copy body with a 12-string neck to bring it back to a 6-string; but then it seems to have the original fretboard from the Norma Burns copy as the pearl inlays are the same.
Dont think it’s the original pickups either but who cares – when it sounds like this – it is deservid of the word awesome.
So the Jesus Saves Model made by… none other than The Man Himself. Double P90′s – blended – (both pickups on / both with volumes / and a low mid and high blender). Low blend is all wooly and fuzzy, but then you flick to the mid and the high blend’s to add the incredible bite, crunch and cut of the top pickup.
Killer sounding gitbox – for sale – maybe...

We Are You…
We are passionate about writing playing and recording great music. We love the processes and tools used in the past and the present to produce great music. We feel that all music is recapitulation and a reinterpretation of what has gone before, that the only thing that changes is the perspective of the creators and the knowledge that a good tool will always hold its value and can enable someone to paint a picture relative and fresh in its time .
We Want To…
Offer budding or experienced musicians and producers killer vintage guitars and basses to start with and in the mean time great we will be hunting down and finding vintage amps, synths, effects and recording gear. We want to import quality kit mainly from the US and Europe for re-sale in Ireland, the UK and Mainland Europe.
I’m really into vintage American, European and Japanese copies of the big brands and that’s what I will be mostly stocking instore. We will have the odd Fender, Gibson or Greatch but we will mainly be searching for Silvertones, Kay’s, Harmony’s, Danelectro, Teisco’s, Kents, and all sorts of little manufacturers from the golden age of guitar building.
It’s the sound of these things. They sound different. They’ve got bags of character, style and a sound that – to me – is unsurpassable. These git’s don’t sound like a Strat or a Les Paul. They don’t sound like everything else. They have their own thing going on. You then also don’t sound like everyone else when you use them and that gives you an edge.
Jimi Hendrix’s first guitar was a Silvertone DC2. Jimmy Page used a Twin Twelve in the studio. Clapton recorded with Danos and Silvertones. These guitars and amps and the recording gear they went through, create that sound we love, and can’t be recreated in a piece of software.
It’s all about the look, the attitude and most importantly “The Sound!” And they have all that and bags of it. Once you have heard the stuff you won’t go back.
