Looking for some insight and honest assessments .
TELE & STRAT bodies hot-roded out and killer paint jobs eye candy all day long.
Yes, I own a Model 6 from the eighties. It's in nearly mint condition except for the tiny ding you nearly always find at the tip of it's pointy headstock. Other than that it's perfect. I love it. Neck's straight and the whammy stays in tune even with the most vigorous of use. I even like the active electronics, which many people don't seem to care for. I find them quiet, and the mid boost knob helps thicken up the sound quite nicely. It's basic black.
I like it a lot.
