Ooooh.... love the colour, mate!!

A slightly weird body shape, but not unpleasant by any means!!

Yeah, looks like a strat that started melting in the sun, lol. I wasn’t into the color when I first saw it, but it’s grown on me, reminds me of my high school days in the mid 80s.

Not familiar at all with this Custom model (or that colour either) but it looks like a solid player.
Nice!

The neck feels like smooth glass, no sharp edges anywhere. I was also able to drop the strings real low without the frets interfering with each other. They took their time building this one.

No pics but looks like they came about around '84.
I've never seen one in person but I have tried to buy one before. I didn't realize they had MMK45s or I'd have tried a little harder.

Thanks for the link, I sent them a message.
Yes, I was pleasantly surprised when I realized they were worth more than I paid for the guitar.
