I’ve got an ‘85 Japan Strat I bought in 1991. Weighs a ton and has the Kahler System II bridge thingy so a PITA to change strings, but feels like absolute home.

Wow... I only picked up the guitar around 4 years ago! Perhaps I should start a "Noob-iest of noobs" thread...

Have had this Egmond since 1988. Bought at a car boot sale in Speke, Liverpool.

As you're a long time NZG member (and therefore well within the GC element of society) I would love to hang out and i'd be more than happy to buy you the best beer available at whatever venue would suit, but I do have to say (apologies, I know you made this and making guitars is a good thing) that is an absolute abomination of a guitar!
