my new geetar...

...so i was pawn shopping yesterday looking for a decent used road bike. after about my third shop, i saw this beauty hanging in the store. i got SO excited. my wife has been wanting me to get one of these but they are a bit overpriced on ebay. i nabbed this sucker for $90 with a hardcase. i put a gibson 500T pickups in it, gave it a pink knob and took it to practice yesterday afternoon. it plays great for an indonesian squier. the frets feel good, the action is awesome....anyway, here are the pics:

I got mine the first year they were introduced. I put a Seymour Duncan Custom in it and it kicks ass. Great deal you got for $90 with HSC.

GTWGITS












and I'm jealous

They have new full length ones at a store here for 200. I don't get the ebay prices. Maybe they were on sale when I saw them tho

I paid around $160 for mine IIRC. I put a P-RAILS hot in it, which cost about as much as the guitar hehe. I also threw on schaller straplocks and sperzel tuners. It's my C standard guitar. I've played worse guitars that cost more money, thats for sure. You get awesome audience reactions from women if you gig with it too.

Great little guitars

[markD]

did you have to modify the pickguard for the p-rail? i was gonna pop a white emg 85 in there but it was too square for the cutout...

oh, ron...i purposely didn't show the squier 70's headstock. it's not you are missing anything!!

Yeah, my bud runs a plastics shop. He measured up the p-rail with some calipers and laser cut a routing template and zapped off a little excess plastic. You literally couldn't tell it wasn't factory without measuring it.

Needs a Floyd

Cool deal. I would have bit on that too. the 500T is a great choice, but my idea (don't steal it) is to put an Invader in one. Just need to go "Over the top".

Hellbat's is great too, since I can't decide on pink or black

[GuerillaPete]

Love all the kitties. Nice scores.

DonP: order a pink Invader for it from the SD Custom shop - that is, if they do pink.

[Hellbat]

I actually contemplated an Invader or one of the new X series EMG's but part of the reason I bought the guitar was a platform to try out the SHPR2. I'm glad I did. 1 pickup and a 3 way switch for tapping options gives such a wide array of different tones from the guitar.
