I bought it in Los Angeles in 1992.

It had a broken neck repair scar and the paint was so cracked that I thought it was tiger stripes, so it was a steal at 70,000 yen for a 60's old one.

It was like Gibson tried to make a Strat to compete with it and it was totally different (laughs).

The body is unnecessarily large, so if you decide the height of the strap at the picking position, the neck will go far away.

It's like holding a table (laughs).

This picture was taken in the Japanese-style room of my parents' house, so it looks strangely domestic (laugh).
