Members Lonnie99 Posted December 20, 2010 Members Share Posted December 20, 2010 Picked this SZ320 up last week with an RG350EX and a Fender Stage 160 DSP amp. Already flipped the RG and amp, but I think this one's for me. I go through a ridiculous amount of gear as a hobby so for me to actually keep something is rare. Actually, after nearly 300 guitars I've only kept 2. Anyway, this thing is amazing! I also had an SZ520 a few months back in flame green that I gave to my daughter's boyfriend. I had every intention of flipping this one too but it's grown on me, my wife even likes it and she NEVER comments on my guitars. I don't care what the pricepoint was for this new, I'd put it up against any guitar I've ever owned and that includes many Gibsons and Carvins. Already scouring ebay for a white one.

Members jairic Posted December 20, 2010 Members Share Posted December 20, 2010 I had one of those, and regret selling it (For $70 to DJ frank sans Pickups... ouch). Fantastic guitars. I actually like the 320 better than the 520 or 720, but no idea why. Great score and glad to hear that you like it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members sylvesterlowery Posted December 20, 2010 Members Share Posted December 20, 2010 An SZ is on my GAS short list, very nice! Congrats, and Happy NGD! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Zappa74 Posted December 20, 2010 Members Share Posted December 20, 2010 Great guitar. I've had a 520 for about 5 years now and it's been my number one the whole time. Don't know what it is, but it just feels right. Good luck with the white one- they seem to go for a bit more than all the other colors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Lonnie99 Posted December 21, 2010 Author Members Share Posted December 21, 2010 Thanks guys. I really think this one is going to be a keeper. This is the 520 I had last year (?). Should have kept it too. Oh well..... I may change the pup rings to either actual metal or wood, not really digging the cheapo plastic ones.

Members newbuilder Posted December 21, 2010 Members Share Posted December 21, 2010 Congrats! I want to grab up every one of these that I see for sale. That is my main gigging axe and the back and sides can be really pretty with a little work. That goldtop is wonderful looking...let me know if you end up letting it go:poke: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Lonnie99 Posted December 21, 2010 Author Members Share Posted December 21, 2010 Nice! How did you strip/refinish it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members newbuilder Posted December 21, 2010 Members Share Posted December 21, 2010 Nice! How did you strip/refinish it? With a little electric sander, sanding drums for the drill to reach in to the horns, and some hand sanding in some spots. I refinished it with Golden Pecan Minwax followed by tung oil semi gloss...it feels soooooo good with the neck and back sanded down. I love that goldtop man...and they really are great guitars. THis and my artcore full hollow and Mason are all the guitars I need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
