Nev’s GAs of the moNth:

Every issue I’ll let you know of a bit of gear that’s floated my boat (rather than sunk it, as in the previous scenario).And staying with the seaside theme, how about something surfy? What? Fender 1958 Custom ShopJazzma­ster Where seen? Coda Music, Stevenage Price? £3,149 Descriptio­n? See-through white Journeyman Relic with ash body and gold anodised pickguard.This is not even my kind of guitar, really, and it wasn’t the immediatel­y best looking of all the Jazzes and Jags when I visited Coda recently. But up close it was gorgeous, played like a dream, and through a little Carr amp with reverb had that wonderful chimey twang that you just can’t find on a Tele or Strat. Would I ever use it? Probably not, but it wouldn’t half look cool nonchalant­ly leaning up against the wall in my flat!
