PLEASE HELP me find a guitar like this!!!!

Postby $uperpuma » Wed Dec 02, 2009 10:18 am

OK... my 90's Horizon with the single coil at the neck, and no floyd died a terrible death a few years back... I might be able to save the neck, but the body is bashed good. Sucks because I was REALLY attached to it.
I have been searching high and low for nearly 3 years looking for another. The pics after mine are the only 2 I've seen in that entire period of time.

The Page comes close but I can't get used to the Trem... I'm too heavy handed and end up playing sharp

Anyone have one they would part with or have a line on how to get one or how to get a body with this configuration?

The Custom Shop wants About $3400 for this VERY simple guitar... I just can't justify it...

HALP!!

:lol: No shit? They got white ones and all sorts of funky shit now. Originals are still the best, of course.

Anyway, Paul is the dude who had that one in the UK. He might stop by, but I haven't heard from him in a while.

Well if you have ANY way to contact him and find out whether he still has the guitar and if he'd be keen to sell it. Or who he might have sold it to.

I'd be very grateful. Or have him email me at puma (at) superpuma.net

The story: I was cleaning the garage/rehearsal space and I put it up on a high shelf. While I had my back turned, sweeping, I heard the worst crash ever. It took and ender into the floor from nearly 8 feet. split the body with a few pieces off for good measure. I had such a connection with that guitar. I got it in the used section of GC. I walked in one day and there sat the ugliest esp horizon I'd ever seen, but I knew what it was. It was scratched and had large paint chips, but when I plugged it in, I knew it must be mine. It was marked $300. I had $30 in pocket that was meant to be lunch money for the next 2 weeks and I wasn't sure how I was going to come up with the rest ( I was DEAD broke at the time)... but I put those 3 10's down and the rest is history. I think the neck may be able to be salvaged. I have a friend who is an endorsee looking into getting a B stock body for me... the customs are just too high for such a basic guitar. $3400 was the last quote.
