Members ArKay Posted June 1, 2007 Members Share Posted June 1, 2007 Has anyone ever seen one like it? I found a few reviews, but none of them seem to fit. And most of them said theirs were either MIK or MIA, made by Bentley for the St. Louis Music Company as a low-end brand. The MIJ sticker on it is probably wrong?

Members RUExp? Posted June 1, 2007 Members Share Posted June 1, 2007 I remember those from the late 80's but the ones I saw were Polaris brand. Same factory no doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members RUExp? Posted June 1, 2007 Members Share Posted June 1, 2007 I used to want one because it vaguely reminded me of Prince's cloud guitar with extended upper horn and the pickup configuration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Muddslide Posted June 1, 2007 Members Share Posted June 1, 2007 Never seen that style, but I used to have a Series 10 tele copy that wasn't bad and I recall seeing a Series 10 Rickenbacker copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AaronF Posted June 1, 2007 Members Share Posted June 1, 2007 I live in St. Louis and see quite a few of those in pawn shops around these parts. I don't really know anything about them though. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Harry-L Posted June 1, 2007 Members Share Posted June 1, 2007 Looks like a badass shredders delight Never heard of them, sorry What's up with that cut on the body right under the neck? If MIJ, I would snap it up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If MIJ, I would snap it up! I have no idea... I saw a similarly styled guitar a couple of months ago and passed since I thought it had the wrong neck on it IF MIJ, yup.

Members RUExp? Posted June 1, 2007 Members Share Posted June 1, 2007 What's up with that cut on the body right under the neck? If look at the rear shot you'll see it's a bolt on neck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Pope on a Rope Posted June 1, 2007 Members Share Posted June 1, 2007 I had a red Soloist copy way back. I still have it around in pieces. Someday I might put it back together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Burningleaves Posted June 1, 2007 Members Share Posted June 1, 2007 Interesting. The only Series 10 guitars I have seen were the pointy headstock type with plywood bodies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ArKay Posted June 1, 2007 Author Members Share Posted June 1, 2007 I've read pretty much all of the reviews in hope of finding that model, but had no luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mikew Posted June 1, 2007 Members Share Posted June 1, 2007 Don't you think the construction looks very Ibanez-ish? Maybe it's me, but it's kinda reminiscent of a Maxxus, isn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ArKay Posted June 1, 2007 Author Members Share Posted June 1, 2007 The shape is similar, yeah. It should be Korean if the info in one of the reviews can be trusted (KISS-style S in the Series 10 logo). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mikew Posted June 1, 2007 Members Share Posted June 1, 2007 Westone-ish also, but the floyd seems Ibanez-ish also........ Don't know what to say except it looks like a damn cool axe! The color is cool, don't see it often..... Pretty immaculate condition for an 80's axe too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ArKay Posted June 1, 2007 Author Members Share Posted June 1, 2007 If the FR doesn't suck it should be pretty sweet, yeah. Gotta wait and see what it'll go for since I'm actually hoping to score something else. Damn eBay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
