Never sold any guitars but my sleeper atm would be the JS30DK, quality way beyond the price, looks hot, plays real nice
& even the pups do a great job.

I'm starting a complete overhaul of my Warlock soon, that (i'm hoping) will turn into something special, but nothing
compares to Jackson........right guys?

I think about my RR24M sometimes. It was a nice guitar, but I never got along with the RR neck profile.

[rjohnstone]

Squire Affinity strat. $149 MF sale.
The stock electronics sucked (fixed now), but the neck is like butter.
Chinese dudes did an awesome job on this one.



Austin LP copy. Less than $200.
This thing is my #2 guitar.

No guitars sold for me (I'm a hoarder), but there are loads and loads of amps I cry about selling. (EG. Dual Showman head and cab, Simms Watts heads, Selmer Bass & Treble snakeskin, Marshalls beyond measure )

I have no idea not a lot of info on Yakima.Body is more strat shaped than any MIJ Kramer I have had.
It plays and sounds damn good USA Kahler Flyer that works great too.

Some of these guitars are "sleepers" = always low priced good guitars vs. "deals" = someone got a good price on a normally pricey guitar.

the sleeper in my collection would be the Samick TV Twenty. Blues Saraceno signature model. Chunky maple/maple neck is a pleasant change from all the J/C's, thick but comfortable. Odd offset body shape. Funky creamsicle burst finish with matching offset dot inlays. 3-3 headstock, but unusually, all righthanded tuners. The Duncan Designed rail pickups are surprisingly good. A little harsh, but good.

No one seems to know about these, but they are a great little guitar.

They also made a H-H version which I'd like to pick up one day.

For me, it was most of guitars in this pic that some of you may have. The best sleeper was the Chlorine PC1 that Phil owned that was used on a few albums. KOA body and a prototype sustainer, something about the KOA bodys:


L to R top row: 1998 Spalt PC1, Phils studio Clorine PC1 (KOA body), 1995 doubleneck, KOA top PC1, KOA body PC1
L to R middle row: Custom PC1 based off Phils "Sulley", Grover prototype string thru archtop, custom kermit archtop, 2003 Phil used lacewood Pc1, RHY ltd run soloist,
L to R bottom row: Dean Freddy guitar signed, Japan archtop with adrenalzie graphic, Roswell #22 used by Phil on the X album, Phils Adrenalzie guitar used on the 93 tour, Jackson Friday 13th guitar signed
