I picked this up from a shop in France 3 years after being on the hunt for a blue one with birds for a while. Hasn’t played it for a while so decided to film the entire process and share some thoughts as well.
I also compared it to the modern Custom 24 and McCarty 594 briefly. It does sound really different. Higher output than I expected.
Overall I remain stunned how much of a finished modern product they made 37 years ago. The pickups sound has changed and the control layout has been improved , but otherwise they perfected the formula right from the start
