1994 MIK Limited Edition blonde/natural Strat-style Info?

Recommended Posts

I will post a pic later, but I am having trouble finding a pic or model name of a blonde Strat-style Epiphone with a maple fret-board Explorer type neck. Weighs way more than an average strat body.

 

1994 Saien factory serial # I4040760 Limited Edition

 

Would love to find out what I purchased for $30! I will check out the electronics first chance.

 

Not one single scratch or dent on the body!(What I actually wanted it for) The neck, with banana type headstock,had been repaired. Repair is on the back, nut-to-5th fret. Re-glued where the two-piece neck was matched.

 

Any info would be sweet. Thanks all!

I believe you have a very good guitar...I would get it all cleaned and set up before you decide to mod it.

Thank you, Hombre, for taking the time to hook me up....The link was SO righteously helpful. S-310 w Solid Ash body,1994-1996. Weighs a ton!

 

S-310 Custom. I was surprised at how well the pups sing,too. Still,changed 'em over to a Seymour Duncan SH-4 bridge,two Texas Specials, CTS pots, CRL 5-way, Sprague barrel-type cap, TUSQ nut, and replaced the 2-point with a 6-screw mount traditional. Wow and OMG...This axe was a gift from The Guitar Gods!

It was nice to find it was a Samick factory production;I have a 1994 Samick body with same specs, but a laminated body. I was kinda thrown by the exact same cavity routing, as in like the same exact machine did them both. Plus, that laminated/ply-body is one of the best studio axes we have recorded, totally owns it's own sonic space. Who woulda thunk it?!
