Cat Burrito Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 These were £500 a while back so that's a good deal. I love the look of these but it's the headstock that makes me stop short of a sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ou7shined Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 Not a big fan of hollow bodies but doyouknowwhat, I would... if it weren't for the massive centre-parting/fishtail headstock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRedX Posted October 10, 2010 Share Posted October 10, 2010 The headstock's the best thing about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] If anything like the BJFC teardrop I had then the only saving grace will be the paint,,,,fretting looked like it had been put in by a 5 yr old and made from cutdown bicycle spokes. The pickups were god damn awful,the fretboard was terrible the pickgaurd that was advertised as steel was infact some sort of shiny plastic....Sold it on ASAP,happy to lose dough...a pal had some sort of 50s copy new yorker jazz box affair It was tonaly dead acoustically,I think it was made from reclaimed T Chests... Dont buy these make without trying them out...they look pretty in the adds in the hand they feel cheap,,,,,Is this just my opinion.....youve been warned!!!
