  • Predator/3DR Body

    Were all the bodies made from Basswood, or were the models made specifically for sale in Japan made from Poplar? I know they were all manufactured there.

    Here is the body in question, it's stated as a Japanese model made from Poplar

    And there's no recess cut in the body around the neck plate

      I'm finding more info out as i search. This is pretty interesting. It seems the Japanese model is Poplar. The DK-060

        That's correct. Most of those early 90's Japan-only models were made of Poplar instead of Basswood.

                There's one on craigslist near me for $400 the whole guitar including the case, he will take $300. I tried to purchase it a few weeks ago but he was so slow to get back to me I had purchased something else, that's when he lowered his price to $300. https://portland.craigslist.org/clk/...453924201.html
