Sub 700 dollars (used) neck through Floyd shredder

[pott]

A friend of mine is looking for a sub 700 dollars neckthrough shredder with a Floyd. I've made him a list of what to look for:
Charvel model 5/6, 650, 550 and also 750xl (though they have a set neck
Kramer stagemaster and Barreta (also focus because they're still pretty good it seems)
Old ESP Horizon or MII

Has anyone got any other suggestions? Also if you have links to auctions on ebay, that'd be nice. He lives in Puerto Rico though.
Thanks everyone.

Maybe one of the Music Yo Kramers? They are cheap and everyone who owns one seems to rave about them.

he could try look into the old Bc Riches too, i've played an old usa ironbird and i thought it was really really cool.

he could look into Ibanez too. Alot of people bash them, but the neck thru RGT42 model is really nice to play and it built from good materials

Music yo currently doesn't have neck through shredders anymore [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] Meeeh they did have some very cheap one a while ago. Ah maybe they'll get some soon.

The Peavey V-Type is nice.
+1 on ESP (used ESP or new LTD), Ibanez or Kramer/MusicYo. Their neck-throughs are a bargain.
The Jackson SL-4 is a helluva nice neck-through shredder for dirt cheap used. The SL-3 looks good too.

Re: Sub 700 dollars (used) neck through Floyd shre

The only SL4 I've seen on ebay was 800 bucks. I thought it was overpriced though... How much do they usually go for?
I'll tell him about the V type. It's true that you seem to get a lot of guitar for the price.
No more neck through music yo [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
I told him about the SL3 but there's none for that price [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
What ESP/LTD should he look for?

The flametop SL4s go for that much, but the solid colors go for around $400. CHECK THESE OUT.

MusicYo currently has the Baretta 404FRS/D in stock in metallic blue for $329.99, at least that's what the website says. It's neckthru, but it's got the quad rails and a licensed Floyd. I got one of the US Collection Barettas a couple of years ago for $299 with Duncan pickups and an Original Floyd Rose. It's a great playing and sounding guitar, and it's very well made. It just needed a good setup. The FR404 is the same guitar, just different electronics and hardware. I doubt they will ever do the Kramers with Duncan pickups again, they will probably just use the Gibson pickups. I think I got one of the last ones with Duncans.

that pacifica is cool. I've never seen one of those before (Is that what Michael Lee Firkins used to play?)

Re: Sub 700 dollars (used) neck through Floyd shre

There's plenty of USA floyded Hamers on ebay for ~400. That's what I'd go for.

Re: Sub 700 dollars (used) neck through Floyd shre

Haha, I just realized I posted a link to an LTD that is not floyded. What a maroon.

Re: Sub 700 dollars (used) neck through Floyd shre

That's the only Hamer that could qualify that I found:

It looks gorgeous though... And SD, DiMarzios and a Schaller Floyd for that price... Seems like a decent deal. Does anyone know of the guitar?
