    thanks guy, I'm happy with it, its such a different feel and sound compared to my Les Paul

    the only thing is that it gets outta tune if I dive down the trem but then again......old strings ??? and I think it need a little adjustment ( not to familliar with floyds ) use to a fix bridge

    i'll probably get it in for a little TLC

    Nope, it's broken. Sell it to me.

    Congrats on the guitar! Hope you enjoy it!!!

    Yeah, this is the Dinky version of the Soloist I had, the "SL2" with no inlays and chrome import hardware. Great guitar for cheap!

    The body will accept Floyd posts and so will that route. The only issue is the nut shelf, which can be corrected pretty easily.

    There was also the USA Rhoads RR2 which was bolt-on with no inlays, import hardware and Armstrong pickups. The only one in this series to have Duncans was the DR2. They also had an SL2S which had sharkin inlays. I believe some of the "2" series also had black binding.
