Both of the guitars that made it through from Group F (this tournament's group of death?) are still in the competition. I deliberately kept guitars from different groups in opposite halves of the draw, so will they meet in the final?
We're guaranteed a group runner-up in the final from the Telestar v Jazzblaster match. Both excellent guitars, and really goes to show how the luck of the draw can knock strong contenders early.
In the other half of the draw, it's Bass VI v Bronco. Two guitars that were mentioned a lot in the comments section and as, the only surviving group winners, both have looked like favourites. But there's only space for one in the final.
Any of the four would be worthy winners, but which will make the final? You decide in the usual way! 2 votes, 3 days.
I'm sure you know what they all look like by now, but just in case:
Semi Final 1:
Maggieo's black Telestar:
Runner up from Group B. I don't know much about these, but they look cool and pop up on reverb for ~$400. Any more info in the comments would be great!
v
Mechanical Birds' white Jazzblaster:
Runner up from Group F. Started life as a Squier J Mascis Jazzmaster, before being fitted with rewound reissue WRHBs amongst other modifications.
