Never seen that one either, i like it!
Seems pretty high end MIK, i don't think i've ever seen a bolt on with the scoop in the back ala the bayonet mount.

Looks to be a very fine example of the mid-90s FCN revival guitars! Must be a good one if he's gigged it so much, eh?

Re: Not seen this one before....
I'm seriously surprised this has not sold and at a decent price as well.
This sale has absolutely nothing to do with myself.
They are solid guitars. May I be so bold as to say better made than the late 80's Korean ones. Solid bodies, standard floyd. A lot of guitar there. Keep going on about these, try one and see.

Re: Not seen this one before....
Timing sucks.... I'd be keen but we're all packed up now and haven't got the space nor the time to wait; we're on the plane in 3 weeks...

Probably the cracks in the neck support area, looks like a design weakness waiting to happen. Was going to hit the BIN button on your reco until I looked at that a bit closer. What you think?

Re: Not seen this one before....
Just lacquer cracks I reckon. Ask the seller. Would take a mighty bang to break there.

Already got 2 in the suitcases we're taking on the plane.... and the necks don't quite fit even on the diagonal; loads of stress there so they go separately!!

That's great, i don't believe it! You didn't tell the Mrs. first?!
I'd bought my Vandenberg while still in my full arm cast (only in a partial arm cast now), so I can relate brother!!!

I know, last time I said I would get rid of one but havent. This time even the arm sympathy card wont work. When it gets delivered my Mother in Law will be here too, didnt think this one through did I.
Glad to hear your arm is making progress.

Re: Not seen this one before....
My God - Aren't we a weird lot?
We lust after guitars.
We buy guitars, have them delivered when the wife is out, put them in suitcases, hide them under beds, make up stories about the new 3 replacing the old expensive one you sold.
The best way is to buy some and sell some. If you have loads of guitars, the little lady gets all confused as she can't tell old from new. So long as she sees some getting boxed and sold, she can live with others coming in.
I don't really hide my guitars, although I do have some in wardrobes, which means I don't have space for more clothes, which means that I have money for more guitars.
I only get a little nervous if I have to buy another guitar rack as I have kinda run out of explanations for that.
Aha! it has struck me - I am buying and selling guitar racks! (Thank the Lord for blatant lies and downright deceit!!)
Yup - We are a weird lot!
