vincentw Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 I'm guessing the 490R and 498T. Round profile. Should be killer guitars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bender 4 Life Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 My '88 was the "30th Anniversary Plaintop" edition which was nothing more than a round/fat neck Standard with Bill Lawrence circuitboard p'ups (a p.i.t.a. to work on) gold tophats, and a gold plated TRC with a scrollwork ~30~ on it (which mysteriously disappeared when my son had the guit. at my ex's house for a cpl. months) It's a rock solid guitar, heavy as hell (14.1 lbs.) and only failed me when a 105w tube amp shorted thru it. I realize now that the then $400 price premium above the Standard sitting right next to it was probably not worth it, but it's one guitar i'll NEVER part with.
