Antiques Roadshow

Posted on: 17th January 2008

I was watching the Antiques Roadshow and stopped to take more attention when I heard the Dallas Tuxedo being mentioned. This was especially significant as I have had a two pickup example, in wood finish, for the past 40 years.

I originally bought this for a small sum from a local second-hand shop, as I was then a 13 year old who wanted to learn to play electric.

The Tuxedo is complete and in original condition, including hard case. I have just had Dave at Axeshack (www.axeshack.co.uk) to give it a service, and the most significant work was a new set of flat wound strings, to suit.

I would love to hear from others who have either owned, or still own, a Tux’.

Many thanks Guy for having such a great collection, and I look forward to hearing more about the plans for a dedicated web site for the Tux’.
