Looks to me like some kind of Fusion? but I've never seen one with the old guitar logo. Maybe some japanese market thing?:think:

I can help with the first one.

Model # SDK-075-SSH, made for the Japan market only afaik. I bought one exactly like that when I was stationed in Japan in 1991. Excellent player, still seriously regret letting it go. I paid about the equivalent of $400 new, w/o case, at a little music store in Tachikawa, Japan. Bolt on, rosewood, licensed Floyd, offset dots on rosewood. I don't know what the pickups were, but they sounded great! There were other models with other pickup configs, archtops, etc., so I'd imagine that would help a little with the other one...

edited for spelling...and again to note that these were NOT short scale...

Thanks! So that 500 used is a bad price then! What's the scale length on it? Lately I've been on a hunt for 24.75" superstrats which has me looking for Fusions and 750XLs

The second guitar is a CDS-070-HH and is 25.5" scale.
