INFO:

Very few made in Black before they decided not to continue the color. Very hard to find.

Vintage White (or Blonde?) was also made first year only. But more guitars was sent out in this color before they discontinued the color. Easier to find than black. But rare as well.

Price 1996: $579:99 (2003: $799.00)
