Oh yea, there's a 94 MIK Squier II with an E SN in my local antique store for $200. Killer guitar. It's a rare color too, it's gold flake with a gold PG, and cream white knobs, all stock apparently. Maple FB, with a wider neck and flatter radius. It feels a bit like an Ibanez, and also feels exactly like my 92 Stratocaster. Also comes with OHSC. It's in perfect condition, minus the finish crack in the neck pocket (typical of a 20 year old Fender) and one of the hinges on the case broken.

I want this thing badly, but don't have an extra $200.

Then it is your civic duty to post pics of it here.

I want an 80s Makomatsu.

I'm halfway kicking myself now, but when I found the Ibanez RG I bought (and traded later) I also found a 1985 Westone Spectrum in the same thrift shop for $25 more.

I'm halfway kicking myself because I love Makomatsu anything, but if I had never bought the Ibanez, I'd never have the Guild.

That guitar has had a large amount of character battered into it over the years.

I think I might put a down payment on that Squier II.

I just remembered this thread and this guitar. Charvel Surfcaster, surely we're due for a reissue?
