Do you think this guitar had a schecter plate on the back once?

No, I suppose they must be referring to guitars with bolt-on necks. All their early guitars were sort of luxury versions of Strats and Teles, a bit like Tom Andersons now (Anderson's a former Schecter employee, I think).

As long as it sounds good and isn't poorly made i don't mind.

Honestly, at that price it can't be a bad deal. When you started this thread last night I was very tempted to bid on it myself, but that would have been unfair!

from HC -"I took the guitar home, stripped off the horrible blue paint, and refinished the gorgeous ash body that was lurking underneath." hmmm -sounds familiar?

If it was ash the wood would look different to the neck wood, however in this case it looks the same on both neck and body, and i don't think you make necks out of ash so it has to be maple.

That's my theory anyway, which review is that?

Neck seems to be glued in on these models

May indeed be Godin made as they have huge stocks of maple

Heres a piccy of another that was on ebay a while back

I'm not fond of trems because I don't like the way the guitar loses sustain when you drop the pitch

only when you do a complete dive bomb.

listen to my clip on the players room, i could do that bit, after the main riff for hours, literaly

Now I see what you mean! Point taken! :twisted:
