Wow that takes me back . Must dig mine out of the loft . I remember great neck and good weight to them. Thanks

Hi Pablo :-) Definitely a vastly underrated guitar! Cheers, Gary :-)

@@FoxysGuitarShow yes paid a pittance for mine and I was really impressed. Great setup and neck and finishing . Love Japanese guitars their workmanship is something else

Great demo and review! Nice idea showing the guitar from different angles behind your demo! You mentioned you were unsure of the date and origin of manufacture. Sparse information online about it, some say Japan, others Korea.

Hi Nathan and thanks :-) Wherever the guitar was manufactured it was clearly done to the highest standards. It was lovely to play. Cheers, Gary :-)

Hi Gary. You said you thought the headstock seemed familiar but you couldn't think of the brand ... I think it might have been EARTs recent range of Strat copies or possibly CARVIN, as their past line of Stratocaster lookalikes also had a very similar shape.

[@FoxysGuitarShow]

Hi Chris and thanks for this :-) Knew it looked familiar but couldn't just think where from. All the same, it was really easy to set up and lovely to play. Cheers, Gary :-)

Hi nAndy :-) Chopper? Oh dear, I'm going to have to watch the thing now hahahaha. Did I put a photo of my Harley on? As for the guitar, it was really nice. Easy to set up and great to play. My mate annoyingly bought it for £35 from a charity shop! Cheers, Gary :-)

[@FoxysGuitarShow]

Ah, just realised! One of my skating mates drives these. This one was out on a test run and he said he needed some 'ballast'. Enter yours truly hahahahaha :-)

Great review and research on this one. These are real keepers 😅 Cheers, Gary!

[@FoxysGuitarShow]

Hi Mr Whitesnake :-) Annoyingly, my mate bought it from a charity shop for £35 ($42?). Keepers indeed. So well made. Cheers, Gary :-)

[@mr.whitesnake8421]

@@FoxysGuitarShow Ha ha!! At least it's well made. I have a few keepers too. Far more than I care to admit. Cheers!
