really interested in this hardtail strat, but cant find any info online, im wondering if you good folks can confirm if it is SLM, or if you know anything about it.

cheers

Link says it is ended. Did you pull the trigger on the BIN, Sarge?

No clue about an SLM connection. If Arthur happens along he might have an idea as he is fairly familiar with SLM and all their ancillary badges.

Actually no, I was out when it ended.
but I'm torn between a few Hondos on ebay just now:

I made an offer on this today, just awaiting a reply

all that wood and brass....yum

Well best I can offer is that to my knowledge I have never seen one like this before. I do not think SLM put this one out but you never know may have been an early stab at it. Wish I could offer up more info but have none.Looks pretty cool.

just found this

pretty much guaranteed not to be SLM

that guitar has just been relisted, still tempted as I do like the odd sunburst paint job
