1. Limited edition are always available worldwide, never "region specific.

A Perfect example is My Charvel strathead, 75 each in trans red and Trans Blue were ordered by (then) distributor Zitrone Musik. They were touted as "limited edition" For Germany only. What they WERE were 75 each red anbd blue CS Stratheads, with an according price.

Reading your post again, I´m starting to wonder if this isn´t actually oner of these guitars. But they do NOT have the "limited Edition" inlay, only MOP Dots...

The guitar in the pic on the other hand is a "real" limited edition, was available all over the world. If that´s what the´s selling, he´s only talking through his ass on the "Europe only" and 25 pcs bits (IIRC there were 50 of those) [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Not true ..these were unavailable to the states due to the headstock rights.. The only area that was able to get these was the european market ..


Yes it is a real USA.. I've never played one but I've heard the profile is different ..

Althoug I´m pretty sure that this would have been the only limited edition that wasn´t available stateside, or?? All the others I´m pretty sure I´ve seen on both sides of the pond..... [img]/images/graemlins/scratchhead.gif[/img]
