| A friend of mine just purchased a short scale cast aluminum Clinesmith. He was generous enough to let me borrow it for a few days. I can't believe how GREAT this thing sounds!!! I have been playing a '53 Fender Dual Professional for the past few months, an absolute killer guitar. BUT, the Clinesmith sounds better. WAAAY better. The tone is FAT and sustains for days. It's unbelievable. |

Hi Nathan,
I just got my Clinesmith JM 22.5" last Saturday.
Agree 100% about the tone and also would add that the string spacing is absolutely perfect for me. My poor non pedal playing has improved a lot in less than a week.
Can't put it down for long.   
Andy

| The true meaning of "FRIEND". Will let you borrow a brand new Clinesmith guitar, for a few days, that you just received. I would, maybe, after a year. |

I'd let you have the shirt off my back if you needed it, but my new Clinesmith?
I ain't that good a friend!
