According to that listing, only 12 were made, and Rick Nielsen bought 11 of them...

It’s awful. I kinda dig it.

Also, his hair is terrible. That’s a color old ladies use after they go gray.

I hate the third pickup more than the headstock.

By then Aldo Nova was irrelevant...

I remember in the 80s Gibson made a double-cutaway Les Paul with an Explorer headstock. It may have even come with a Kahler.

I remember wanting that guitar a lot. I can't remember why.

It’s soooo 80s.

I’ll take two.

These.

I hate the short horn DC shape though, wish it would have had a typical Junior DC shaped body.

I saw the same tour in 1983 with Dokken,Aldo Nova and BOC. He was a dick to his bandmates onstage.

The one on reverb is better looking and only has 2 pickups. I always fancied a Dean Cadillac as the Explorer/Les Paul hybrid but wanted an Explorer headstock on it. This is close.

 

[Guitar Heel]

So awful.

 

[Help!I'maRock!]

So awful.

hold my beer.

Three humbuckers on any guitar is instant fail. The only guitar I have use for three pickups on is a strat.
