Well, I wasn't in the market for a new guitar, but I've always been intrigued by the model 1, but the basic cost and then import costs to the uk were just insane.

However, I came across a remarkably good deal on one in the uk and pulled the trigger.

Should get it some time next week, at which point, will provide photos!

Think Lyndsay Buckingham

Was this basically the guitar he was using on Rumours...

...and more importantly for the solo in the outro of The Chain? :twisted:

That's an unusual guitar!!!

Will yours have the piezo pick up too? That sounds like a very interesting option!!!

Not at present, but it's easily fitted and the electronics are in place, so I will probably install it to bring it up to full spec.
