Title: Looking for a fiver...
Post by: bsee on April 18, 2005, 03:35:16 PM
I have a '90 Persuader 5 in 32 scale.  I would like to upgrade.  I prefer the narrower string spacing of the Signature/Series necks over the Rogue neck.  I would also want to stick with a 32-33 scale length unless the body shape has an extended upper horn, at which point I would go up to 34.
 
Probably looking for at least Signature/Anniversary electronics, but would consider a Series instrument as well.  I watch eBay pretty closely, but please let me know if you have or see anything interesting elsewhere.
 
Thanks!

If you're felling brave, these guys have been trying to unload this one for a while:

I dealt with them once and found them to be of below-average intelligence for a pawn shop, but that ended out working to me benefit re: price. Maybe you could get lucky too?

They are yet to provide real photos or useful answers to the questions I have asked them.  I also have no real interest in a Rogue...
