So i went on a family trip to the 'US and A', to New york to be specific, which was a lot of fun. Before going i obviously had to do some research on possible guitar stores to visit. some which turned out to be a 2 minute walk from the hotel. Walking in I got a serious GAS attack. But as i had some money saved because I wanted a new guitar anyway i was able to solve that problem. The dollar was low compared to the euro so it was always going to be a steal for me.
After a couple of days of pondering i eventually walked out with an import neck-through, arch-top alder (soloist) body, maple neck, bound rosewood fretboard and headstock, OFR, EMG 81 in the bridge 85 in the neck. In metallic black. The finish is great and it´s a big upgrade from my string through kvx10. It comes close to being my dream guitar except for maybe the rosewood fretboard and the colour. but damn im loving it,it sustains incredibly due to the neck-through and arch-top and the PU´s scream.
the fretboard is really nice, especially compared to my old guitar, the quality of the wood is just so much better.
I think i saved about 400€ buying it in the US so for me that´s great.
However I have never heard of a model with these specs, I know its made in Japan and the serial # is 061889. there is no J in front of the serial like I read somewhere. So could someone help me with this, was it built in 2006?2000? 1996? and possible info on the model run etc.
I dont have any other pics then the online store ones, but im not sure i'm allowed to post them. real pics of it will be coming soon
Thanks
