Can you tell me about it? I've been considering one as my next guitar, it looks to check many boxes but never actually got to play one

Wasn't it on the switch tip forum? I do remember something like that there many years ago.

I never joined OSG, IIRC he wanted like $1000 for it. I thought it was a regular here but then again so many regulars don't post anymore so who knows.

I hate to ruin the thread, but it was him. He ain't ever gonna sell it and gets really insulted when you ask about it. Once he even got into a bar fight because of that. I wouldn't wanna mention the fact that he has it in front of him
