Yup, that's one of the export 'Specials' they did during the early '80s.
I guess the Japanese were the only ones that could afford to pay the high price of the American dollar at the time.

Pretty cool!

Am I wrong for being drawn simply to the blue label on it?

Hello Jahn,

The blue label was supposed to go on 'export' models but in reality it turns up in guitars that never left the country. The reason behind it is not always clear.

Thanks Hans, that's the kind of fun factoid for a footnote in your second Guild book!
