This was an impulse buy, My plan was just to buy the Emanuel in Armagnac but after a self debate and grappling on whether to buy the Lennon or McCarthy style for a second pair, I went with the Lennon Winklepicker. I am happy with my decision. A great retro look, the quality of the build is impressive. The sizing is perfect. It is really fun just to put them on and play my Rickenbacker.
