I have a 92 Starburst, solid maple, very nice sunburst. To me it's a very sweet sounding, easy playing guitar. When strumming, has a nice low end, and is pretty balanced through out.. IMO .. The finish is lacking in quality, as the clear began chipping pretty early. But it's part of it's character now. We've seen a lot "times" together. It's one guitar that'll stay with me.. Never understood why it didn't get the love it deserves....
