"Damn" Armstrong

For a long time I was not actually sure what this started
life as. I believed the body was either a Dan Armstrong or a Hagstrom.
It turns out to be the body of a 1965 Hagstrom Viking (I only know because
I just found a picture of one at the
site), though I still call it the "Damn Armsrong". I got
it goodness knows where in England and stuck on an old Gibson style neck
I had lying around and voila a Damn Armstrong. It has two really awesome
overwound single coils that give an instant George Thorogood-y type of
growl. It's amazing for slide. I used it a lot on Invisible Ray stuff
and a tiny bit on Hot Animal
Machine (mostly for "Move Right In"). The neck
on this is now manifesting its cheapiness so I might have to throw a new
one on.
