A Chinese stripped down replica of an Ace Frehley Washburn AF-40v “Artist Model” Guitar! The original was made in Japan. It had little to do with Ace Frehley as he only had it for a video and a few photo shoots in the ‘80s. I bought one for $700.00 in 1987 and played it hard for years.
I sold mine, regretted it, and thought about ordering a custom replica from Ed Roman’s Shop but the cost stopped me.
Finally, somebody made another one!! Here’s the dilemma....I don’t want to get scammed. AliExpress?!? The possibility of LOSING about $500.00 is a gamble I can’t take.
I love that guitar, though. It sits in your lap comfortably in any position, stays in tune, and you have access to the 24 frets. There’s nothing else like it....the closest I could ever hope to get is an EX kit with a 24 fret neck and cut away the body enough to be able to play it and have it look good.
I want this guitar! I also don’t want to get ripped off so I’m in limbo for a while....A $500.00 gamble....how bad do I want it?
If it shows up on eBay and I can pay via PayPal....Done!
