    I bet that color just pops in hand.



    edit to say they could be stablemates

    Now, THAT one (the 52FB), I have to say YOU were lucky we already had a nicely toned one to fill that spot or else one of us would have ended up spending a bit more (that one was on my list and I agonized over adding it as a dupe for the better part of the weekend.....however, Christmas is coming up and I am watching funds...in case I can fill one of the holes in my son's set)

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

    very nice ! i was a underbidder on the 49, i think it sold over $200 ? how far were you willing to go no the 52?
  • etexmikeetexmike Posts: 6,852 ✭✭✭
    Looks like a couple of great TT pickups. I love the color on both. image

    I keep searching for some 46's for a little mint set I am putting together but no luck lately.

    Deltaman - yes, the '49 was over 200 $ ( if I remember right ........I will double check ) and there were two of them in the same auction that night .....nearly

    identicle tone
