    I have the chambered version, which is considerably lighter than the usual back-breaking LP. I didn't intend to buy it that day, but when I played it, everything was right - sounds, playability, and especially the way the volume and tone pots work. I went away for lunch, then came back and played every other LP in the shop (Vintage & Rare, Bath). No, this was one special guitar, so out came the credit card.
    At home with my Orange Tiny Terror, out came all the classic sounds - Page, Kossoff, Mick Ronson - not to mention Bernard Butler and Dave Gilmour (the Wall solo), plus a great jazz sound.
    I'm still paying for it, but I have no regrets!
