It’s obviously a 1980s BC Rich Bich. With a Floyd Rose, and a Super Distortion.

Gibson Victory.
Back in those days, everyone knew that if you were talking about Destiny's Child, you were talking about Beyonce, LaTavia, LeToya, and Larry.

I guess those weren't made until '81. I'm terrible at this.

Glad to hear your new acoustic is arriving, though!

Well.

It's with UPS. LOL

It was 'out for delivery, before 2pm'. Now it's 'delayed'

We'll see.

Those motherfuckers. Destroying NGD after NGD since I don't know when. But I already have a thread about that. Anyway I'm not super familiar with Yamaha acoustics so I'm looking forward to hearing more.

Exacly. Those motherfuckers indeed. As soon as I saw it had shipped with those ruthless charlatans I thought of the UPS thread. I even paid more for an AM delivery (it's currently 2:45pm here now) so I could get a cheeky afternoon nap in on my day off and now I'm sat here bleary-eyed and anxious :D

Ooh I was gonna guess some kind of Guild, but never even seen one of those before. Is that a belly contour but on the front? Crazy

Dang, don't know why I didn't think of that.

Those are super cool guitars. Never played one before. How's the neck profile?

Never seen one of these either but you've got a Guild with the sexiest ever headstock!!
I love these Westerly era ones with the yellowy MOP (identical to my '77 D50).
