its a HAWK --- a BLUES HAWK and its MINE BEOTCHES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

O.K. ---O.K. ---NOT officially--- it is on "test drive" from our very own Chasfed --- who made me a VERY nice offer........

HAve I MENTIONED ----how FOOGIN AWESOME this Forum (and its members) are????

So I am flying the Hawk --- testing her tones--- checking under her wings --- getting to cuddle up and fondle her first hand --- at home in "real world" situations with MY amps and MY suck-fest playing ......

She arrived yesterday---flew in and scared the dogs......but no biting or clawing---

So pics to prove it happened,
Blueshawk1.jpg
blueshawk2.jpg

So first impressions ----its a different bird for sure --- a horse of a different color a beast of burden? not really ....
In fact its FEATHER light ---yet retains good sutain (in part to the string through construction---)
good sustain--- the pups are a unique flavor -- not SURE I love it--- or not --- need more time in the saddle to determine --Fender scale length ---Fenderish bridge/saddle deal-i-o
Semi hollow--but with none of say a 339 or DOT feel or tone to it acoustically or electrically---
VERY LITTLE info on the interwebs about them.....only made in this configuration for a few years........recently returning as an EPIPHONE model but with different ---well stuff........Pups etc.

The OTHER SEmi --in the herd -the Dean Sarasota has fat bucker/tron wanna be TV jones humbuckers in it.....and a more 339 vibe for sure.....I thought ---easy decision cant have 2 Semi Hollows.......but......they sound WAY different....


TO the construction--- its well made for certain -- but the light weight of it throws me.....it feels very much like one of these

WHich are very nice for the 250.00 new buy in!!!!!

Tonal similarities exist but not entirely-----


SO ----- its here......its not been attacked by the GRIND or any of the other miscreants......so its tentatively "accepted" --- will it stay ---- or will it go???????
What fate shall she reap? Chained in the Doom Room of Boom? Set Free to SOAR to anothers loving embrace?
Hidden under a pile of dirty laundry and claimed to have been shipped back to Chas????? (I would NEVER said the Ferengi-----now Chas just sweated a little ;) )

ALL IN FUN MATE --- ALL IN FUN!

CHASFED, ya Crazy Bastage--Thank you kind Sir for allowing this testamoneyial to occur---

time will tell.

cast your votes kiddies.
 
Keep it. If it's not a player, then you can have fun whipping it into shape. Those Blueshawks are as quirky as you are. I think you would look good with one... :dood:

Keep it ... because the next (un-named) person with his hand up for this guitar really shouldn't have his name on the list (well according to his wife that is) ;-)
Calling DIBS all ready----well payed ----well played-----keep your options open --- this one LOOKS different than a Fender though Mate --- the MISSES might NOTICE you sneaking about with this lass ;)

Did I ever mention that I use to work for a Bail Bondsman up in J'ville back in the day. I can find ya. I doubt that will be an issue though. I will abstain from the voting since I have vested interest.
 
Oh I am rarely safe :)

O wait you mean where I AM safe --- not where OTHERS are safe????/ its so hard this English thing............besides I have feathers to stroke......
