+1 Looks great - I've always been a comic-book fan & the Cap. is one of my faves. Of course, I don't lust after an RR shape guitar at all......... (I have been promised that I can get one if I get the snip though - or is that too much information?).

Awesome! Where in the world did you score that one?

Re: I\'ve waited ages for this one....

I've lusted after that one in my '99 and '00 catalogs. Did Dan Spitz own that one? What about the 24-fret Silver Surfer?

I am almost positive that Jason at DCGL ordered that one .I remember seeing it there

After seeing this, for the first time in my life now I want a RR guitar.

Re: I\'ve waited ages for this one....

I don't think it ever had a famous owner. As far as I know, it was shown at NAMM, made it's way over to Europe for the Musikmesse and then went on sale. Robert Witte bought it from the store which got the show pieces, and I traded my soul for it [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

In case anyone cares, here's the XTRR family as it stands (2 more to come!):

Is she going to pay for the guitar? [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

The guitar was painted by Dan Lawrence (of course!) and I got it in a trade from Robert Witte. I have to focus on what I got, not what I traded though....

Interesting to know. I always thought someone famous did own it, and I think someone mentioned Dan Spitz once, even though I've never seen him with that one.

Re: I\'ve waited ages for this one....

The graphic on this guitar is dated 1997, which was in Dan Spitz's 'watch making' period, so I seriously doubt he ever saw it.....
