Kenneth
 
Introduction:  Kenneth contacted me via this site a couple of weeks ago, asking for any background information on his guitar. 
 
The guitar:  An Aquarius AQ-500 LPB (LPB denotes the colour - lake placid blue).

 

The story:  Kenneth (who's in Norway) has had the guitar since 2002, when it was a birthday present from his uncle.  Nice birthday!  His uncle bought the guitar new in 1984.  The guitar is completely original and unrepaired and is in great condition, as the photos demonstrate.  This is the "unusual" 3 pick-up model, which Kenneth describes as having a "kinda old blues - funky - swamp sound to it, great with wah pedal".

this guitar looks to be in immaculate condition ...
