330 71

Post by scotty »

Picked this up from Japan the other night still awaiting its arrival.
Bound 24 fret neck Transitional higains Fab TRC...... Im glad all you lot were at Scarf i scored a bargain.Got this cheaper than a Bog standard 330. :D
These just dont come by very often so i couldnt refuse.Not very many 330s at that time they were too busy with the LS guitars.

Very nice Scotty. What name will you carve into the top? :lol:
Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm
