Yes Ron I still use their kits, unlike you I CAN use a soldering iron.J/K big fella!!
The Aria had that lame PCB pot set up it had to go.The kit is what makes this guitar kick ass.

Just got my Epi ZW Bullseye, damn good guitar. Especially for the price. Highly recommended.

My first guitar, and still a favourite though I hardly play it anymore as I'm not used to it, my Fernandes "Super Grade". A spot on replica, even has the binding over the fret ends.

I think they came out in the early 90's, maybe late 80's too. Got it in '93. Upgraded the tuners to units with ebony buttons and after a few pickup changes it now has EMG's.

Sounds killer through the Marshall, great chunk.

Toggle switch is orginal, works great and has had lots of Ace Frehley style abuse, especially when I was playing in the Kiss tribute band.

Hell yeah! Like the Fernandes.

that is a sharp looking Paul, Vic. I like the combo of gold tophats & cream rings

Got a Burny Les Paul Custom that I simply LOVE. One of the nicest guitars I've owned. I'd like to get my hands on a Greco, Orville, or Edwards. I've heard good things about all of them. By the way, Burny is the Japanese Subsidiary of Fernandes.

Thanks Gary, the guitar is all original with that stuff, it has top quality knobs/pots, including the toggle of course. I remember after I bought it I would test the knobs on Epi LP's and they were just terrible quality.

Post a pic of your Burny Racerx2k, is it a full on replica or slightly different?

[Racerx2k]

Full on. Here ya go:

[Genebaby]

Ooh, nice one.....

I'd get a second hand Tokai Love Rock. Brilliant copy.
My first ever guitar was a Hohner Les Paul copy. Man, I loved that guitar.
