I think that some of the Vintage Series had a slimmer neck profile...

Keep you eyes open. These tend to show up every so often for fantastic prices. I think I paid something like 43000yen for my Classic serial #3. It was slightly used and even had the original strings on it...

Lost@C · 03-23-2012, 09:21 PM

London, wot they say.
MIJ Classic series. I've currently got a one piece back,BLP-STD/FM CS, (somewhere in this thread), the Classic series is great value for what you are getting,the original Vintage series likewise, I'm sure. Nicely built / finished.
Both guitars pictured are used but near new and sharply priced. A few more Classics seem to be trickling through with a couple of the FM's being had for 70ks++.
I like em...a lot... but gassing to try the big brother "M"

Blue is not really my color but this BLS-FM has a cool looking back:

JamesT · 03-24-2012, 12:38 AM

I should email Sho and ask him why blue????? Honeyburst or Lemondrop but Blue?

wulfman · 03-24-2012, 01:23 AM

At least no green flametops...red works for me though.

how much is it..

vintageJIM · 03-24-2012, 07:14 AM

I was thinking the same thing about my 1978 Fernandes solid flame top 'melon burst' FLG-80 VG, except, WHY Green?

Lemondrop, or Amber but Green?

a blue flame top is prolly for playing blues

........... but certainly not my cup-O-tea ...........

Such a waste. Not only has it go t a nice back, but a nice top too...
Real cool looking flames.
My favourite Classic finish is still the Darkburst which they had for a while last year but I dont see then anymore.
Do let me know if you come across one.
That would really get my GAS going.

(missed out on another of your GT P90)

Be nice to pick that up for $1000 and have it refinished. Great top on it.

emptyisvarah · 03-24-2012, 09:40 AM

LOL ........... FugiGen only wished they made tenons this tight fitting & this clean, and with no residual buffing compound & no shielding paint

BLS-59 HB ............... IMO like the one currently on YJ

I think we discussed it in a PM ...........

wulfman · 03-24-2012, 05:13 PM

The red p/u wire threw me a bit there, I saw that on an MIJ Epi as well.

wulfman · 03-24-2012, 05:19 PM

Here is something different from Deviser, a Bacchus relic standard, and yes, it has a black shielded tenon. I think someone else has one of these too:

good eye Harold; they are Epi pups

........... same pups as when I bought it; pretty sure they are ceramic as they are HOT ........

I have these AlNiCo zebras from a BLS-120 that will go in, once I get off my lazy ass

...... then she will be ALL Bacchus, again ......
