And a Sustain Block bridge 😃👌

Union Jack? That with a Union Jack graphic (and no headstock break) would be incredible! Anyone got one they could post?

Wow, crazy good collections! Makes me wonder the HFC membership guitar net worth could be.

If we’re going way back… 1989 Charvel 750xl’s. Made in Japan for one year only. Thick mahogany body, carved maple top, 24.75” mahogany set neck with blended heel to appear neck thru. If a Les Paul was built for shredding… The trans red and the CSB in the middle had sequential serial numbers. The plain CSB on the right sounded ungodly….

Na, its dick change. He's got way more vaulted.

Two Watsons. wtf. (nice)

She's cool with bats biting her leg too. I'd be screaming like a little bitch, swatting at the thing. And then stomping it to death. She just asked someone to come get it and said she and the bat are okay. Then went on with the concert.

She's come such a long way from Cindy Lou Hoo...

Music is such a different world nowadays... And i'm glad that she's taking full advantage of her fifteen minutes of fame 😃👌

I should just show this in class instead of lecturing today. "Guys, today we're learning about how Hacksaw Jim Duggan got fired from Van Halen." This is the news!

That’s a nice one. I wonder if the pricing bodes well for my two Protos?

Ha! I said that it looked like it had nearly bled out from the headstock break. For a short while I was trying to value it for my own purposes, but I didn't get as far as coming down on a number when I heard the asking price and switched to PSA mode. Pros: 80's Blitz, Hamer-quality mahogony of that era Non-paddle headstock Slammer pickups? Graphic finish Original HSC Nearby me, so no shipping Cons: Wear and tear Headstock repair Is the Kahler a pro or a con? I've never handled one, but I certainly see a lot of ridiculing of them, although I can't always tell if it's the Kahler itself or questionable quality conversions.

Gnarly headstock repair is an understatement….whoever did it couldn’t be bothered just to wipe off the excess or squeeze out?

Like @Saul Goodman, I was a monster fan through Fair Warning….somehow 1984 didn’t do it for me (I know, I know). I bought 5150 and really dug some of those tunes, but they lost me after that. MA surely helped make that band what it was. Hard rock with those pretty BGVs was really novel and different. Plus he was and is a fine bassist.

What was it glued with? Heinz ketchup?

Some Robin V love.

Robin twins with Dolphin inlays. Also sequential serial numbers.

Early 1984 Jackson soloists ordered by Gary Pihl of Boston. These are the 2nd and 3rd Jackson built after Jeff Beck's pink one with three singles (defiled by Tina Turner). Sequential serial numbers. They have seen big stadiums with Brad playing the hard tail and Gary playing the Kahler. They are fantastic instruments.

Always loved Mike in that band.

Dang. What a mensch!

The flag graphic finishes were pretty rare, but honestly, not really all that desirable - I'm talking about ANY of the flag designs they did. That wasn't a Custom Order or anything - Blitz guitars with Kahlers were regular fare in '84-'86, and the flag graphics (Confederate, USA, Union Jack) were done in small numbers, but just as stock graphics if a dealer ordered it or they just did the finish and shipped it out. I would have less than zero interest in that particular one, but for somebody who had to have that, I'd think you'd be overpaying at $1k, honestly.

Dammit, I don't have but one each of a Cali Custom and a Standard. But I got two custom shop Charvel DK24's and Charvel is owned by FMIC which used to own (and then killed off) Hamer.
