That gold on white Breadwinner (Deacon?) looks fantastic.

I'm finding quite a bit of misinformation through the article, a lot of info that doesn't pertain to solidbodies ripped from "The Book", and really when it comes down to some of the models, he really has very little to say about them.

I did find the part about the GS2-R interesting though. I'd like to get my hands on one of those. Never heard of 'em.

Cool article, Jeff. That guitar should be in a collectors vault (or a gas station owner's restroom)

maybe he'll shed some light on this "mystery" guitar.
