    How much are these electric guitars? I couldn't see any prices.
    The Law of Gravity is nonsense. No such law exists. If I think I float, and you think I float, then it happens.

    Since everything is hand-made to order, I'm guessing they aren't cheap. Dave Pura (wonder if there's any relation ) of the Wheat Monkeys was playing a couple of Godfather hollowbodies through a Messa Triple Rectifier and 2x12 cab... man it sounded SWEET! That might just be my next guitar (shhhh! Don't tell my wife ). He also had that Tele Custom looking one.

    I recognize a few of the names on the artists page, many well respected local musicians so I'd trust their endorsements. I'll drop by for a visit the next time I'm in Saskatoon - kind of a "man-on-the-scene" or "roving reporter" for theFret!

    My fellow Fretters need to place their orders. Maybe I can get a deal on a Godfather for spreading the word world-wide

    Cool Hot Tubes 70! Thanks for reviving this thread. Coincidently there is a Pura Tele on Kijiji right now - oh, so tempting SEE IT HERE (No endorsement or relation to the seller - just posting it for general info)

    Swing by the Fret Players section for a proper intro and tell us about yourself and your Pura (and any other gear you have).
