That's a helluv a price! Buy it! Or I will :lol:

Why wouldn't it be?

Hi there. Has any of you any experience of the Cat's Eyes acoustics from the 80s? I've found a good online deal on a CE400 in very good condition and I was wondering how would that sound. Thanks

????????????????????

Heh heh... It says more than two words, obviously... Actually it's greeklish, an internet language allowing greek to be written using latin characters... I was just advising for the 135, praising its gifts against the 335

The AAA Maple top is obviously a joke... It's definitely a korean or chinese tokai. So a veneer top is the best you can hope for. I'ld guess it's a ls48 or something. The logo looks strangely bold, probably it's just the photo, but breeds suspicions... I wouldn't bid a single dollar without a...

If the case is not a matter for you, you can definitely find a new Japanese LoveRock without case for just a bit more (about ?450), which would be a much better guitar in many aspects.

If it costs 500? new, then it's a good deal, considering the pickups is a 150? upgrade alone. If it plays good and has minimal wear, that's not bad. On the other hand, I bet you can find on fleabay a lot of used japanese tokais for about that money. But, you can't try them, that's the problem...

Very nice indeed. Congrats man. I'm so getting a custom some time....

No audible difference, really. Interesting...

True, richtone did a perfect setup on mine too

Congrats man. I bought, too, a LS90Q (HDC color) from richtone a couple of weeks ago. EXCELLENT guitar and the guys at richtone are the best, everyone here will tell you so. Great choice, you won't regret

That's an excellent point, I forgot to mention that myself. You have to try a whole market's stock to find a good one in terms of sound and finish....

Unbelievable.... I never touched a historic Gibson LP, but I've played (and owned a couple) modern Standards. My ls90q has nothing to be jealous of them (except, probably, a bridge pickup issue, but I'll give it some time). I don't have the gibbies anymore, so I can't make an AB comparison, but...
