Thank you Jerry, appreciate it very much. I'd love to get back to the old peavey amps but they're too heavy for me to lug around anymore.

Really nice guitars at terrific prices. I have a keyless model, very rarely break a string. Hard to believe someone hasn't cabbaged on to one of these beauties yet.

Great price for an excellent guitar. I have the SD-10 model and I will add that since I've owned mine since 2004 I've only broken one string. Good luck with the sale Kevin.
