Here are two guitars I picked up over the summer. The Outlaw was bought local. One owner who took very good care of it from the day he bought it. The original manual for MPC and the registration card both still had the blue string on them and the case was virtually flawless. The guitar is almost completely cherry. I was very fortunate to get it. At first the gentleman was reluctant to sell.
The Omega is in mostly very good shape. I am going to have the frets dressed to really make her pretty. I had never played an Omega before and I gotta say- love it very much.

:love: :love: 8) :up: Very nice score on both. These look very, very nice indeed. I am a sucker for the peace sign logo, Congrats on the X710 score with case candy. The Omega is excellent also. I have that one as well as the natural and I love them. The tonal variations on these models are awesome and they play just like a LP. They can go from a sweet warm tone to a snarly growl with no problem. Congrats on both and thanks for giving us all a peek. :up:

That's a classy looking Omega man... and a showroom shape Outlaw to boot? I'm Jealous.

Both these guitars have the 'Tone Spectrum' 5 way on them, versatile and expressive, here's a sound clip played on my well worn, possibly borderline abused Outlaw, enjoy:

What can I say, Jimmy Page used a lot of Phase Shifter!
