Anyone know where I can get one by any chance? I know this was a limited run a couple years back but this is my all time favorite guitar!

if you are referring to the Reverse Prototype Closet Classic, then no, they were an Ltd. Release. Wildwood had 3 of them used at 1 time but they sold like hotcakes! VERY Desirable instrument!

I'm on a quest to find one. join the club man.

you can read up on the guitar, and the history behind it here -

also here is the original article, about the original Reverse Prototypes-

http://www.stratcollector.com/newsdesk/ ... 00183.html

you can also thank J Mayer for the creation of the reissue! you'll see in the article.

not the reverse body scoop on the front, but I guess it is possible. not gonna be exactly like it, due to their little rule about custom orders that resemble past projects.

I have a reverse headstock voodoo strat and it's beautifull but this just looks wrong. Tinted maple neck against this colour and the front body scoop is weird but each to there own

read the link I provided and maybe you'll find out.

that color is Olympic White, but in certain light like the picture, it looks cream. I personally love it. it plays well (played one only once, but it was one of the original 25 from 1980)
