Thanks, but I have a couple of problems with identifying it...
1)has the Super 6 pu's like the RS205
2)has the 1 piece Maple neck like the RS405 [no rosewood fingerboard]
3) Natural colour like the RS125 [neither the 205 nor the 405 came in natural]
4) no phase shift switch
I'm stumped! |

Why the double post???
"2)has the 1 piece Maple neck like the RS405 [no rosewood fingerboard] "
RS405's have a rosewood fretboard...
Gonna need a photo. However, I'm betting this guitar has been modified.

Sorry 'bout the double post. Wasn't sure where to post this query. I'll try to post a photo tonight. As for the fingerboard, I meant to say it has no rosewood, just maple.
Thanks. |

As well, it's an '83...if I forgot to mention. |

The letter prefix of the serial number would help determine if it's an early or late '83 build. A late '83 may be an '84 model.
