Hmmm, that guitar is a bit more early 90's to my eye than 80's, but still very radical! It reminds me of a cross between the Partridge Family logo and the ESP that Chris DeGarmo ESP from the early 90s.

I think I have the matching Swatch Watch stored up in my attic.

Funny! My very first guitar was a Guild Burnside -- my parents gave it to me as a Christmas+birthday gift when I was 13. Still have it... I'll always have it. Mine's just straight black, though. And, yes, the bridge is bolted down tight, it has a new nut, and it sports Duncans. And it actually doesn't sound half-bad.

i can't find out much about this guitar at all. all i did find out was that they were said to be made b/t 86-88 and that was it. also the bridge is a bit of a PITA since it's so bulky but at least it stays in tune now since i locked it down lol. i found a tele version of it with a cracked headstock and the extra parts i would need to finish it but the shop with it is asking more than i'd pay since this thing was free and has some damage to it anyway. i was just happy to get it playable lol.

it's a kahler ripoff actually...horrible quality and it actually cracked in two places (by the front mounting screws). i think a real haler would fit it though but i'm still up in the air trying to make up my mind if i should 100% restore it or just leave it or just sell it.

Take it back to the original owner, and beat him over the head with it.......he still hasn't been punished properly for buying it. hahaha

it looks like one of Vernon Reids guitars from liveing color. Member that guy? he used to have some funky painted guitars. He is a good player and they had some cool songs. anyway there might be a picture of one of his guitars on the net. this guitar looks alot like a copy of one of his custom Hamers.
