Members dunning-kruger Posted October 6, 2012 Members Share Posted October 6, 2012 Granted its probly a very nice guitar and I dont really know much about it, but its just damn ugly IMO. I bet it plays very well tough and sounds good , probly why you bought it? Maybe its the pick ups or the goofy headstock.....or probly the fingerboard, naw its the pickups and the headstock? I dont know but its just goofy ugly, a guitar only a mother would love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they look great as well. To each their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members brandass Posted October 6, 2012 Members Share Posted October 6, 2012 I probably asked you back in the day! I know I asked a couple people here. Nope, not me, would've remembered that. Good luck with your search! BTW, I've still got Lola pickguards - a stock pearloid white, and a custom acryllic black - if anybody's interested just PM me.

Members Verne Andru Posted October 6, 2012 Members Share Posted October 6, 2012 I will admit that when I first saw the Sheena in a Guitar Player review I thought it was the dumbest design, particularly headstock-wise, I'd ever seen. Now I think it's really outside-the-box funky and really like it. Things change I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members drivelikejoewho Posted October 6, 2012 Author Members Share Posted October 6, 2012 I think they look unique but the way both of mine sound and play make you not even care what they look like. The appearance has definitely grown on me. I might have to swap the neck pickup for the single coil off the Sheena to see what that sounds like.

Members chimi Posted October 9, 2012 Members Share Posted October 9, 2012 Always liked the looks of those. For some reason it gives off a bit off the Brian May Red Special vibe to me... A bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members fretmonster Posted October 9, 2012 Members Share Posted October 9, 2012 I've always loved the vintage kitsch look of those FAs. I actually travelled all the way across town cause some lady had one for $100 that I didn't recognize. Turned out to be a cheap Target model or something - wild goose chase. But you can bet I'd be proud to don one of those (Sheena, Lola, Delia) if it passed the test-drive. Big congrats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Emperor Guillotine Posted June 27, 2015 Members Share Posted June 27, 2015 Necrobump. So...anyone feel like selling me a First Act SFA model? Lola, Sheena, or Delia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Emperor Guillotine Posted June 28, 2015 Members Share Posted June 28, 2015 ^ WANT. What's up with the pickguard on that thing? Custom job or did it just come like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Verne Andru Posted June 28, 2015 Members Share Posted June 28, 2015 ^ WANT. What's up with the pickguard on that thing? Custom job or did it just come like that? Pickguard's custom - to me the guitar just screamed to have a bit more "tele" in her. Pickups are SD EMTY Blackouts - just about as hot as you're going to find in a pickup.

Members Verne Andru Posted June 28, 2015 Members Share Posted June 28, 2015 If anyone is looking, GC in Greensboro, North Carolina 336-852-8620 has a very rare red one [i so wanted a red one] in their used section [111175499]: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Emperor Guillotine Posted June 29, 2015 Members Share Posted June 29, 2015 ^ I just tried to find it on their used site so I can purchase it. (Been eyeing it HARD the past few days.) Now, you post it, and suddenly it is gone and not on the used site anymore... (Edit: I really hope someone on here didn't snag it from under me after I've been eyeing it the past few days.)

Members Verne Andru Posted June 29, 2015 Members Share Posted June 29, 2015 It was on their site for a few weeks - longer than Sheena's usually hang about - so that's not a surprise. Very very rare to find a Sheena these days, let alone a red one! OT: Anybody know what I have to do to get email notification working again. It's set in my control panel but the new system has never worked properly. HC might find their audience will grow again if people know their conversations are being responded to.
