or if you like the italian chrome look:

Me too! I'd love one of those, but sadly they are just as unobtainable to me now price-wise as the original version was back in 1972. If only they had been launched two years earlier, when I had a great job and no inkling that redundancy loomed.... Really pleased for anyone who gets one of these modern tribute Holdsworths, they look really superb and Planet X should be congratulated for keeping the tradition going in a meaningful way.
