Firstly welcome to the board.

Secondly unfortunately you're not going to like the answer - since the Super-Sonic is now discontinued and wasn't around for long the only way you'll find one is second hand - so set up a search on ebay and scour your local shops (although Ireland is going to be overpriced). Don't be afraid to look on ebay.com and pay for shipping, it's a fairly rare guitar.

i'm considering selling/trading mine, in blue sparkle finish with only a few minor dings (it's in the classified section, but you need 50 posts to get in there). lemme think of a price, but i think i could EMS ship it to you for about $80 or so. i'll get back to you later ok? OR make me an offer i CAN'T refuse heh heh

Pat.

here's the Super-Sonic (she comes with a soft case and trem arm)

Thanks man! I now have templates for a supersonic. I wanna make another with a bronco bridge and a pair of P-90s. I also want to change that pickgaurd design to make it the top part to look more like a bronco.

Oh my, could you make a reversed super sonic for a right hander, A LA Omar?

haha no the SS is total different, the how the neck meets and attaches. I know recreating how the neck butt poke out into the body is another story but the body is unique. The upper horn is a stub compared to those other lovely ladies.

yes but it is just a jag/jazz with a slightly altered lower horn

cheers everyone. ive thought about making one too and a right handed reverse one. but if i was too do that i would prob have to mke it the standard scale because it would be alot easier to get a neck.

Sure. that'd be no issue at all. We made one before for a guy here on the boards. I never saw the finished product. It's a very cool idea. The supersonic is a lot smaller body then a Jag/Jazzy.

I make bodies. PM me about it. If I go on and on about it, they'll say I'm spamming. Robert OG also makes bodies if you wanna shop around.
