Check out this clean Strat and the fashion gurus. Oh, apparently there was wireless in 1962. :D

Actually they were among the first to use radio in their guitars (at least here). Bo Winberg is a really good guitarist, check out this video too:

There is just something cool about these guys. It might be the suits? Or maybe it is the fact that you can hear their guitars when nothing is plugged into the output jack.:D Mysterious.:confused:

Don´t dig too deep in this Spud! I hear that the hardcore spotnicks fans are all over the web searching for victims. And they dont like to hear that their legendary Winberg could be involved in a playback scam! :D

I really have a hard time listening to surf music.. I dont think that I could handle a entire album of this. Not even (or perhaps especially not) Dick Dale.

But look at those radio receiving ears! I bet that dude can tune in to most satellite channels ;)

I'd have a hard time with a steady diet of it too. But aren't they just the cutest band you ever saw? I have to say that for what they were doing in 1962 I'm pretty impressed though.

Yeah, there was a "surf wave" here at that time. Green just like Mr Jirons soon to be classic strat. Of course the only thing involved in that wave was the music... I dont think that surfboards were available until the 70´s.
