Basically its an American Strat made in Corona. The guy that had it before me really fu*ked it up! the bridge was all out of intonation, it doesn't have the original pick-guard so I assume he putzed around with the electronics, when I got it it had a terrible hum, so I checked the trem claw, and sure enough the ground was off. So I've soldered it back on, and set it up, plays beautifully now. He also swapped the neck from Maple to a Mexican Rosewood neck but all the Mim necks are actually made in California, and just sent to Mex for finishing and installation on their guitars so i thought , damn this thing was a great deal so i impulse clicked on the BIN button on ebay. </p> <!-- google_ad_section_end --> Sat, 17 Mar 2007 12:46:31 -0700 http://www.projectopus.com/node/18650 <!-- google_ad_section_start --> <p>My beef:</p> <p>It's not mac friendly! When I try to use the site it just hangs there waiting to load graphics, or the xml that loads the flash player. Is it just me or do other people have this problem with that site. I would think that if everyone else has the same issues then why go there?? Who has the patientce to spend hours trying to communticate with your fiends list waiting for all those tiny pictures to load that should only take seconds!</p> <!-- google_ad_section_end --> Sat, 17 Mar 2007 12:33:02 -0700
