Does anybody know anything about this guitar. Like when it was produced, how much it sold for etc..?
I bought it about 5 years ago second hand for about £400 ($600). I was told at the time it was originally from Japan, and it's RRP was originally over £1000 ($1200). I've seen it mentioned in a guitar mag when someone was asking about an old RGZ, and the RRP was confirmed.
It's got 2 single pickups and a humbucker, with a 5 way selecter switch and a tone and volume knob. The pickups are active pickups - they have "Yamaha H.I.P.S" on them, and the there are two switches and a tone knob for to control the active side of them. It's all black with an ebony fingerboard, and pearl inlays. It's also got a floyd rose trem.
I'd love to find out more about it - just get it's specs. If anyone knows anything about it, then post what you know!
I've seen no mention of it on the net, other than the fact that Ty Tabor from King's X had one!)...actually there is a review of it at harmony central, but I did that, and i give it quite high marks!
I enclose a pic of it...although it's low quality - I took it myself!
