Nice Cougars (?) and Casino - MIK or Elitist? It looks like you've got fretboard binding, but it's hard to tell. OK, I'll stop now - my credit card can't handle the resurgence of my axe habit...

EDIT: tlj - nice job breaking a light fixture with your head. Those Sams look great; I need to chill for the time being, but nice to have a reference. Also, you're 6'6"? Are you just never going to wash the SDAs? Did we already have a thread about this? It sounds sort of familiar? And ayn, fantastic shot as usual.

Yup Cougars, and it's the bargain MIK version. Certainly not Elitist.

Elitism is next to Douchism.

It feeds back like a mofo. There's no block in the middle to absorb the bouncing soundwaves. Also, the floating bridge can sometimes be a pain **********... Same with the switch. I have a love/hate thing going on with it right now. Mostly

Thank you for the kind words on the fit. It is exactly what I was going for.

The SDAs are a different story. They are far too short for my body and make me look incredibly odd. I have a crossposted market thread for them right now; that's why the topic seems so familiar. I honestly kind of prefer the denim of the SDAs (

heresy, I know) but the fit is just atrocious on a 6'6" man around the ankles. I swear I just want them to have a good owner, though

I wish somebody would buy them. They're perfect in every way.

Let me correct the "soaked" to:

"double hot soaked, hang dried in a boiler room, and steamed them for 30 minutes to get them to tag size without tumble drying."

I think this warrants an original SF Streetwear phrase: "Light-shattering fit."

Which part of Norhern Europe are you from?. I used to travel through London, Paris, Milan, Amsterdam, Antwerp, Copenhagan and Stockholm 3 times a year when I did fashion forecasting. I do miss sitting alone in a foreign Mc Donalds at 11pm eating fries with a creamy white sauce whilst being harrased by Romanian Gypsy women
