So we went to see my wife's cousin over the holiday and he's a cheap guitar accumulator (CGA) and has about 15 acoustics he's picked up at garage sales for less than $50 each, but he also has a few electrics. He got a Jay Turser, and a Crate amp for $85 since the amp was sometimes working sometimes not and the kid had lost interest. He bought them just for the guitar. The plug was loose from the back of the amp, and since he pushed it in tight hasn't had a problem with it. My son saw this guitar and had to have it, so I bought it for $85 (wife's cousin still has the amp so he's happy with a basically free amp), I sold it to my son for $90 since he didn't have any money to buy the guitar yet. Hey, $5 carrying charges, right? A little hard to tell from the picture, but it's tiger strip red with a pearly pick guard. Plays super nice, better than my son's Squire Strat, which he sold to his brother for $90.

Geez, if it plays half as good as it looks, it's a keeper!
