Different guitars for different market segments. Personally, I'd be pretty excited about a Sheena model with the original style vibrato. Might as well make it a sunburst while I'm dreaming...

And of course, you might as well make it 3 Pickups...... :mrgreen:

I was going to post that edited image of a "Double cutaway" Mark V with three pickups from a while back but it wasn't in the topic! Oh well. Anyway, it would be cool to see the original style vibrato but then again I'd like to have a Stetsbar instead, I have one on my telecaster already and know of its qualities.

Looks real nice. The black pickups look mean with the black pickguard.

Johnny used Klondyke guitar straps. I have one (50s style, like johnnys) and it's great. Also very long.

No straps at this time, however we may look into that soon. Hallmark did offer a strap just like Johnny's in the 60's. Stay tuned and thank you for the queston!

P.S. Mabey we should have official Hallmark shopping bags for toting the guitar around on the subway like Johnny did in the early days. Comments?

We will be letting loose the production date as well as pre-order status in the next two weeks. Thanks for all the e-mails in regards to the new models! Have a great Labor day weekend!
