Welcome Bert.
I believe that's a pretty nice model 1592 you have.

Hard to put a value on it. Most people frown upon Japanese guitars just because they're Japanese. That just makes them more affordable for us, right?
How does it play / sound?

Hello Jorg,

thanks for the rapid reply on my question. as far as i can say, it looks exactly the same as on the picture. so i think you matched it with the right type.
it has to be overhauled, like new strings, the plugin connection is a bit shady, but for the rest it is fine. it plays real easy and with the Marshall amp G 15 R it sounds nice. so, at the end i think that i purchased a nice guitar....thanks again,

greets Bert

Based on the Telecaster Thinline. I like that model.
Very nice, should sound great!
