Re: Rare Samick ??

That light blue Talman looks like it would be a damn fine guitar if it
had a hardtail bridge and some pickups with a little power. Hopefully
those lipsticks aren't anything like a Danelectro's ?

Hi, I was hoping anyone here can give me some additional information
concerning this guitar I've recently bought.

It's a hardly used Samick Artist Series JAD120 jazzmaster-style guitar
w/ 2xP90 pup's.
serialno.: 7070838, no pre-fix.

I just can not believe what a wonderful guitar this is!
It has a Gibson-style toggleswitch on the upper bout and a fulcrum
floating tremolo.
One piece maple neck and I think the body is ash.

The workmanship on this guitar is just amazing.

I've owned 30+ guitars in my time and among them were several of the
'USA classics'.
But this $150 guitar makes me wet my pants and I haven't had that very
often luckily ;-)

A pic can be seen on this site, that's all could come up with though:

Anyone out there that owns one or has seen it before?

Thanks,

Lucky.
