Found the TimHulio's post. His seems to have a uglier :oops: sorry. different shape, that i perosnaly don't like of the headstock, but the tuners and everything looks the same. Probably made in the same factory i think.

Often Matsumoku guitars turn-up on ebay and people don't realise it's good quality stuff, so look at Westone, Aria, Hondo Pro. One or two Westone Spectrums on the bay now, but I can't get over their ugly.

I've got a Hondo II copy of a Fender Lead II (previously owned by Ends) that's an excellent guitar. It has bright, chimey pickups and does a kind of new wave out-of-phase sound better than any guitar I've ever played. He paid not much for it and I likewise:

I didn't mean it in a bad way. :oops: It was just a way of comparing a headstock to the glorious fender shape. I am very sorry for offending anybody. It's just a way we, Czechs, usually talk. Sorry.
