Published on 02/13/02 at 15:00Purchased it at the local music shop, at about half price. 550 Australian dollars.
THE SHAPE!!.....looks very cool, and gets plenty of attention. As well as that, it sounds quite nice played cleanly through the laney amp I have. It feels very nice to play.....it took some time to get used to the thicker Gibson style neck, but I love it now!!
My main dislikes of my guitar come from the fact that the guitar is a weird shape and I have had trouble with getting cases for it etc. I had to put it in a keyboard case until I found a hard case. It also required the moving of the strap pin to get it to sit nicely, but i have now sorted that out and I am loving every bit of my guitar!!
I haven't had the guitar long, but it seems to be built well enough. For the price I got it at, it is a very good quality instrument. Although the strings that were on it seemed below par, that was easily fixed.....sounds beautiful now!!
If it wasn't virtually half price, I don't think I would have bothered. But I got it cheap, and I am thoroughly enjoying looking like an 80's rock star!!
