Published on 09/10/02 at 15:00I paid $80 for my pred. off a friend of mine who got it second hand from his friend. that guy probably paid the retail $399. everything about it was in mint condition but the sound was lacking.
after beating the living crap out of it to 'vintage' it, i removed the single coil pickup covers, rebalanced the humbucker, and set-up the entire guitar. the thing plays like a dream now. it's not my favorite, since it is quite heavy, but it has great sonic possibilities. my next project is to rout out the body. hint: paint the headstock and all the hardware gloss black, it looks mad hot!
the sheer weight of the body and short scale neck.
nice u shaped neck, feels a lot better after sanding, though.
if you like project guitars, this is a cheap starter with great end results.
