Hi all!
I have been looking and asking around the net for some information on this brand.

Unfortunately there isn't much out there but I did find a review and link to a photo of the brand over at Harmony Central
http://reviews.harmony-central.com/revi ... uitar/10/1

That ones different to mine as it didn't come with active pickups.
He says its a Les Paul copy , but I think he meant SG.

I have no idea on the year of manufacturer or model but Its pretty likely it was produced at the Chushin Gakki factory in Japan.
The clue to this is that "Chushin" is stamped under the lead input socket.
Maybe a clue can be found on the stamp under the pickup? I have no idea as I cant read Japanese. Anyone?

I love this guitar, It's tone is great and also has allot of sentimental value to me.
Just got it out of the wardrobe and given it a much needed clean after a long long sleep. (sin LOL!)
If no info comes up, at least there more pictures on the net and a little info in this fantastic forum.
Cheers! Stephen G.
