Cool demo! I love the 6128-1955 and your 6130. Was the 6130 a special run? I forget what the distinction is but I'm saving up for one down the road.

How does the neck feel - is it a thin or thick or average sized neck?

I don't know a whole lot about this one yet. I do know there was a run of these with "knotty pine" & this is not one of those. The neck feels average to me. The original pups sounded fine, but my ears like to hear Filtertrons when I'm playing a Gretsch & TV Jones did a great job on these!

Great demo! Between the guitar and you're playing... excellent. "It's holler in there!"

Did you use a camcorder? A web cam?

Sweet guitar and demo brother! Digging my 6121-1955 though I wish there was just a tad more heat from the stock Dyna's...but that's why I've also got a 6128 with Filters.
Congrats on your score
