Used and refinished a couple of times with upgraded pickups. This dates to around 1988, I've owned it since then. Made in the USA. It was originally a dark sparkle blue colour but I refinished it with EVH Van Halen stripes and then later had the current finish applied by Badlands guitars. I think they were based in Brighton. It's what I would call a semi pro finish. On the whole it's great but there is a little bit of white paint showing on the upper cutaway. This has been well used. In addition to the finish, I had the neck lacquer sanded off and replaced the pickups with Seymour Duncan's. I think there is a distortion in the bridge and JB Junior in the neck. There is some rust and wear around the pickup screws. Given it's age, yes it could do with a set up and clean. I won't lie to you, it played a few London pubs and clubs 25 years ago. Don't bid if you want an immaculate guitar to hang on the wall! Ideal for aging hair metallers and fans of Phil Collen, Sambora and any of those other guitarists from the good old days. International shipping available via EBay so make the most of a weak sterling! No offers, if it doesn't sell I'll happily keep it. Good luck!
