Greetings;
Guess I'll have to quit lurking & join up, because I don't seem to be able to make a contribution to this board NO HOW! (why does Oulook pop up every time I try to do this?)
Anyway, I noticed that the site administrators were looking for some info on the RS-750D guitars from 80-82. (I originally ran into this site just by googling for some info on my guitar) I've got one of these axes that I bought brand new in Saskatoon SK in the spring of 1982. It's a bit neglected right now; thanx to recent move & the fact that my Ephis have been getting most of the workouts lately. A recent move hasn't helped either, just haven't got around to unpacking a few things.
The guitar isn't "minty", but has been well looked after considering it's been played continuously for almost 30 years. (every scratch & nick has been well earned!) Still in it's original case (covered with a lot of 80's type decals) & still plays very nicely. LUV that neck! I can complain a little about the lack of sustain, & perhaps about the lack of clarity present in the OEM DiMarzio pickups, but overall it's a real comfy instrument. Great weight & balance. (I've actually come close several times to replacing the pickups, just never got around to it)
If nothing else, this site has convinced me to buy a new set of GHS Boomers, clean the old girl up, take some good pics, & send them along. I have all the original paperwork here as well (somewhere...I never throw anything out) as well as some brochures, promotional stuff, etc; that came when I bought the axe. I'll take some pics of that stuff too & post 'em up.
Hopefully, I can contribute something to the site!
