Members ArKay Posted March 26, 2007 Members Share Posted March 26, 2007 Haven't done one of those in ages, but I think this is stuff you don't see every day so here come... Even though it may look like a pawn shop deal it's actually a new guitar. It's made by a little known company called Fine. I couldn't find much information on the brand, nor on the guitar itself. You don't see those often. Only thing I could find was a weird eBay auction. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320017266956 I don't think it's made by Kawai nor do I believe that it's worth the $880 he's asking for it Paid $260 for mine, new. It's a nice guitar, but it has some flaws. The extra screw holes under the pickguard don't bother me much, but the nut isn't slotted deeply enough for the zero fret so it sounds like a sitar... Gotta get me some nut files. It's in sparkle black which doesn't quite show on the pics. Next is a Vester Voyager tele. It was made in the late 90's and is a fun little guitar. I've been lusting for another tele for quite some time. It's in a dark metallic blue color even though it looks greenish on the pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ArKay Posted March 26, 2007 Author Members Share Posted March 26, 2007 Last, but not least, another Aria Pro II Cat. It's not as fancy as my RS II Wildcats (plywood body, NO blade pickups), but it's still a nice guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ArKay Posted March 26, 2007 Author Members Share Posted March 26, 2007 They all look like "fine" guitars to me!!! Great looking guitars!! How does that tele sound??? I really didn't have much time for playing with them, been very busy during the last 2 weeks Either work or sleep. Even had to leave the house and work at another company I like though what I heard when I plugged it in. Nice, clean pickups. I'll send you clips when I have found some time to breathe here.

Members PaulSter Posted March 26, 2007 Members Share Posted March 26, 2007 That Fine looks especially cool. Love the shape and the carve. They're all cool! Thanks for sharing... PaulS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This one was yellow....ish.... Nice... (Wild)cats show up on eBay Germany every other week and people usually ignore them The RS II Wildcats are great value! I don't think I would buy another plywood Cat, but probably more Wildcats. That's the only guitar I have more than 1 of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Ryan Trevisol Posted March 26, 2007 Members Share Posted March 26, 2007 That Fine is really kinda cool. The headstock is waaaaayyyyy out there but the concept is a neat twist on a firebird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members larryguitar Posted March 26, 2007 Members Share Posted March 26, 2007 I've heard of Vester, and of course Aria, but never Fine. Looks like it has tons of personality. Have you figured out which switches control take off and landing yet? And I think you're finally into the 'we require a couch shot' category now, Arkay. You have some kewl stuff....
