I've never seen this guitar shape as desirable or attractive.
Till now. Don't know what triggered it, but I was looking at your last pics and thinking; hmmmmm, those are some nice curves. I found myself even liking the headstock...
Thanks for the new found GAS.

That's one nice RIC :) . Does she still have the original p'ups and guard? I wasn't even aware of this one being available as a 12 string :shock: ......

Yeah, I have all the original parts still. I also have one of the knobs as a push/pull for coil splitting.

See? That wasn't too bad now was it? :) Thank you Tooch!
Such a cool guitar.. I never used to care much for the design either, but the more I realized the genius of Fred "Sonic" Smith, the more it grew on me. And today, he is my favorite player of all time. and a mapleglo 450 is at the top of my wishlist. So very neat.

It's definitely got a certain something. Plus, I've really grown to love natural finishes on guitars.
