Very nice tones. Your playing also showed what it can do. I just bought one this week in near mint condition in South Africa. Mine needs a serious neck shim to be playable, but it will be easy to do. I am such a sucker for that vintage MIJ three tone burst!! :-D Thanks for a great review. I wish you the best with your channel.
Sorry, didn’t see this comment and I switched channels. I believe I ended up selling it for around $400. I saw a couple of the same model posted for more, but I’m not big into overcharging for stuff. Just wanted fair value since I did have a pro tech set it up nicely with great actions. That was $100 on the set up and new strings. Plus I threw in a new set of D’Addario .10s :-D
Hey guys, I have recently come into possession on a 5102t and whilst the whammy bar was in the box I believe the spring and knob are missing - any suggestions on where I can get replacement parts?
Did you ever find the parts for the whammy? That’s the one thing about vintage instruments-sometimes you have to replace the whole tremolo as opposed to just individual parts.

Hi! how much did you end up selling it for? There's one for sale in my area for about $400, but it's missing the tremolo. Thanks
