Members Brawley Posted September 5, 2007 Members Share Posted September 5, 2007 Axegrinder per your request. The first guitar is a model A122 Threat Limited in Transparent Black (Yeah, I know it looks kind of brown). The second guitar is a model A124HT Threat Limited Hardtail in Transparent Black Cherry.

Members JoeBoy Posted September 5, 2007 Members Share Posted September 5, 2007 Man the Braws just came and went. I only saw a couple at guitar center. Nice guitars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members GAS Man Posted September 5, 2007 Members Share Posted September 5, 2007 I remember seeing them around for about a year at a local store. I also remember they had superior finishes, so pretty that I was actually a little wary of them. (Like are they real) So do you love 'em? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JoeBoy Posted September 5, 2007 Members Share Posted September 5, 2007 Read this, and maybe it was Mars Music where I saw them. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brawley_Guitars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members headless Posted September 6, 2007 Members Share Posted September 6, 2007 I owned one of the Wilkinson equiped A122's, in a amber finish. Perfectly fine mid-level Korean import. I suspect they'll become the kind of used guitar that will sell below their practical value , because the average Joe isn't aware of them. Wouldn't mine owning another--even taking into account the ugly headstock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members axegrinder Posted September 6, 2007 Members Share Posted September 6, 2007 BRAWLEY, those look great!! Thanks for posting them. I know I would love to own one of the higher end models. Mine is a basic Threat model with a plain trem and a metallic black finish on basswood.The humbucker is the best sounding bucker in my meager collection, and the wide neck makes me play better than any of my other guitars. Even that idiotic headstock has grown on me. I recently bought a Wilkenson VS100 trem for mine and am contemplating refinishing it something more to my liking...maybe even a sparkle coat.

Members Brawley Posted September 7, 2007 Author Members Share Posted September 7, 2007 Those sure look good. How do they play?Specs? they play great I think you can check specs on the reviews here.They have custom alinco pups and the one has a wilkinson trem. Jumbo frets etc. They have really nice smooth necks with great finished frets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members slvrsrpnt Posted September 7, 2007 Members Share Posted September 7, 2007 nice looking guitars, but poor naming choice (especially for any NY folks from the 80's) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bdegrande Posted September 7, 2007 Members Share Posted September 7, 2007 I would post mine, but it looks exactly like axegrinder's. When they show up on eBay, they are not very expensive - well worth a try if you think you might like them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
