The pickups are early Zebra VH-1s with silver bottoms,braided wire,grey caps!

Ahhh...very pleasing to the eye!! Congrats on another RLG90!!! Stunning!!

Udonitron · 02-08-2010, 05:46 PM

God damn that top is buner material MoHo!!

3pupLPC · 02-08-2010, 06:10 PM

Very nice! I love the honey-burst. The zebras are a nice touch too. Funny, the earlier catalogs only show the 90 in cherry burst, but that just shows the fun we have with these vintage MIJs. Congrats, Mojo!

mojo hobo · 02-08-2010, 06:43 PM

Thanks every one your all gents!

3PUPLPC, Yeah! I thought the RLG-90 only came in CBS,If you look at the fernandes catalogues for 1984-85 the rlg-90 is only shown in cbs,But if you look at the specs page in the 1985 catalogue ,it states the RLG-90 came in this finish as well ,it is called COS ,The rlg-60 upwards was availible in this finish,
Many Thanks goes to nwobhm (rob) i sent him a e-mail of the auction photos a few weeks after i brought it ,because i was not sure what model it was,I was 80% sure it was a rlg-90 becuase i could see the a center seam on the 2-piece back.He confirmed that the rlg-90 came in that colour as well and it was a good chance it was a rlg-90.That man is talented when it comes to burnys.

Purple Radar · 02-08-2010, 07:59 PM

Beautiful Burny! Congrats

nwobhm · 02-08-2010, 08:49 PM

Hey Markus, Sweet! That's cleaner looking than mine. You sent me some pics of another Burny you just got but, I haven't been able view them yet. Maybe the files are too big? I don't know. Can you post them here?

Roy · 02-09-2010, 09:09 PM

Great Looking Burny. Sweet Top

rastafred · 02-10-2010, 02:58 AM

it looks like a 2 pieces back. i thought rlg90 had just 1 piece.

Udonitron · 02-10-2010, 08:37 AM

No...RLG-90's all had 2 piece center seamed backs. The 120, 150, and 240's had a 1 piece.

nwobhm · 02-10-2010, 09:25 PM

Well, not all are center seamed, my RLG90 is more like 60/40.

Udonitron · 02-10-2010, 11:29 PM

Yeah but what year is yours man?

schoey1 · 02-11-2010, 03:47 AM
