DISAPPOINTMENT!!! - I brought it home today and it simply didn't sound good through my stuff. It had no definition or clarity whatsoever and was too high-output. It also had cheap, noisy ceramic PUPs and generic pots that didn't have smooth tapers. It sounded way better in the store, probably because I could barely hear it. OH WELL, live and learn. I took it back and they gave me a full refund.

It was chrome red - just darkened from sun and smoke.

<3 Hot Rod Red, it'd look the mutt's nuts on a Mustang.

Knopfler is the man! No one can play pick-less guitar like that guy.
