Location: Keepin' It Weird in Portland, OR		This is another one of those impulse buys, with no research involved... Here is the closed listing...
Which really has no info, so it is easier to just look at these pics...


And I also get a cheezy amp that I know nuthin about neither...


Here is my research material... I cannot see if there is any writing on the headstock.
During the Mako research, they had similar shaped headstocks with no writing.
So is that a GS2-J? Or some kinda GTX? Mako? Whatever?

Location: 6 String Ranch		that catalogue picture is all wrong.
The dash numbers ain't right, they were all numbers. Your guitar is a -5. The all black one, hardware and everything was a -Z which stood for Zabba. Long story not for tellin here.

Location: Tidal Mudflats of Virginia		Looks like you got the Schaller bridge, I prefer that one to the Kahler Flying Bridge system myself.

Nice grab at a great price...I really like these over some of the strat designs on the market today.

Location: The Great Pacific Northwest		Nice catch... I'll refrain from what I have said for many years about these guitars... but lets just put it this way...

You couldn't even buy the hardware for at least twice what you paid for the guitar.

Someday the world is going to realize how good these guitars really are..

Location: Keepin' It Weird in Portland, OR		Thank You Miles...

I stumbled on to that when it was about over... I wasn't looking for it.
And I said to myself... OK, I'll bid alittle bit.
Sorry Carol, but my maximum bid was $111.11... So anybody who really wanted to coulda taken it.
The seller might have gotten more if they had taken the time to Clean the guitar and amp.

And right after that I saw and bought an Academy ! :eek:
Which I overpaid for, but it will get me through the really nasty weather this winter. :D

I have not gotten a reply from either one of these people,
And I won't add them to my sig line until they are at least in the mail!
(Plus, I think my sig line may be reaching it's character limit)
