Another favorite, has the sweet "fat" neck and bomber "fat" string thru body brass bridge with matte single ply pickguard and the exposed bobbin PU's. Really sings with heavier strings, half the time I don't even plug it in while practicing. Still has the "x-140" sticker at the base of the neck. Also it has one of the only "factory" flaws I have come across in all my matsu guitars, the low E tuning machine is mounted a couple of degrees out of line. At first I thought it was bent but it is an original error. Doesn't bug me at all.
