In a quest for irony and a break from the norm i considered buying a TOTAL RAWK AXE beyond hideous proportions.
The options are simple..
1/ Buy a cheapo and customise the paint job
2/ Buy the quality model at a knocked down price (with Floyd Rose) and live with the headstock.

Anyway, my local shop has a £600.00 model "in the back" as they always do. But it needs the Floyd "sorting out" and the neck pup re-wiring. I can dew this. He offers it me 'new, but repairs- as seen' for £150. What shall i do? This is it... LOL

new kramers come with lots of frills and are dirt cheap.

Despite the EVH connection Kramers are gay and the dont tote a Floyd at a price as close.
Cheers though

If you're going for cheese, consider the see-through plastic guitars tha B.C. Rich makes...

Do it and bring it to Doogfest.

Though I think you should get a Explorer.

this one does. and is only $269.99


and lol at calling kramers gay while eyeballing a bc rich.

Definitely go for the £150 with repairs.

Do it

Thanks for the replies, consider this is a NJ series BC (jap) not crappy 'made in mongolia'.
Doogfest NEEDS this guitar!

Yassssss!

I never won that Gordon Smith BTW

Some guy got it for 125 pounds.

Relic it out, tho??

Arr, buy the £150 one, do it up, have a giggle with it, then if needs must, flip it for a tasty profit. Metaller guitars are funny, and we as guitarists are a vain breed; one of my students (from my more geeky, virgin-male-matrix-fans-only course) had brought his guitar in, and I picked it up to have a play on. Now, I had never played anything pointy before: however, the wide, shallow neck was fast as fuck, the action was easy, and the Floyd was such a giggle. But you'll never catch me playing anything that fucking uncool looking.

I do, however, salute your huge cojones that you feel you can carry off a guitar like that.

Wassis? Do tell, I'd love a Gordon Smith...

There was a left handed GS Explorer not advertised as a lefty on eBay. It ended up going for fuck all.

Holy Moses - were you not tempted to have a punt even at £125? Didn't realise you were a southpaw. You've got me looking at GS's now...

Yeah but my budget this month is limited. Plus it is all going on the Mercian rebuild/redux. I didn't realise chrome was so expensive to strip

The left handed one on there now with a reasonable BIN is exactly what I want in a right handed and haven't seen for months

Fucking hell that is a good deal.

If it was right handed I'd have had no choice but to go for it.
