Interesting 1986 SS-1 (Non-Stevie) on eBay…

[cmatthes]

Looks like faded Sky Blue Pearl, and a very special headstock.  Technically not a Steve Stevens Model.

I must say, it’s a tidy machine but not my cup of kava.
I still cannot get over the original means of anchoring the Floyd Rose locking nut — whoever thought drilling holes through the neck at that location was a good idea was in the business of repairing broken headstocks…..

Maybe a better deal to be had here ($1350)?

@cmatthes, remember the CAR SS with the explorer headstock in the repair rack at HFC III?

I do!  I’ve got a pic around somewhere.  There was also a Prototype with a similar headstock there one year if I recall correctly.

Not to mention that it looks gross!

That would be Floyd himself. Maybe he assumed guitarists would be smart enough to not bang their guitars around enough to cause headstock breaks?
