    I believe this model is discontinued, however eBay is always trusty for such an item. This aution ends on Saturday and I'd be surprised if the price went over $500 so good luck!

    Rock on!

    wow I remember those guitars. I always wanted one. They were pretty popular a few years ago.

    Hahahaha, it happens.

    A little while back a buddy of mine just got a brand new guitar. I was messin' around with it for a while, I propped it up against the couch I was sitting on. A minute later gravity took over and it hit the ground. Talk about a look!!! Oh man...that one hit deep. :D
    It didn't damage it any way, just was a bit scary for a minute. :p

    Haha wow that's a close call, that makes me think of another time with the same guitar, we had started a band and were playing Smells Like Teen Spirit, and I jumped off my amp and just missed, by about a half an inch, of having the end of my guitar crack the neck of his tom delonge strat in half, haha I just remember the look on his face when I made the landing, it was priceless

    Speaking of wrecking guitars...
    A couple years ago when I was still in college I was drunk as shit one night and these girls that lived in my building wanted me to play something for them. I played a couple tunes (not very well either...I can't play worth shit when I've been drinking). Anyways, the drinking continued and I ended up dropping my acoustic down the stairs. The neck cracked away from the base...doh! That was the end of that one. :(

    A Strat needs three singles to be a Strat.

    Its a punk guitar. One pickup, no muss, no fuss. I was debating trying to pick one up on the cheap, but decided to save my cash for something more worthwhile.

    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    I launched my Les Paul into my amp like a javelin at a New Years party I threw just this last year.

    It was really fucking stupid, and really fucking expensive.

    It was cool though. :p

    We were jamming and I was so pissed off at this person. I was playing my SG at the time and my Strat was sitting there next to my amp, I picked up my strat and threw it at him and was like SHUT UP! then I looked at my guitar and thankfully just a few scratches, lol

    no shit! I've taken off my tele deluxe after jamming and just literally thrown it on the ground and all it's got is a few scratches.
