This model is recognized for it’s use by Jerry Garcia of the Grateful Dead.
Made in Japan between 1981-1983. The body is a combo of Alder and Maple, with a set-in Maple neck. Features three single-coil blade pickups, each with its own selector switch for versatile tone options. Plus a push/pull knob for phase in/out. It has a translucent natural finish. The design blends elements of a Fender Strat and a Gibson SG.
It has a set-in neck with 3-on-a-side tuners, and has a hard tail -- all qualities of a typical SG. Yet, it has a 25-1/2" scale, 21 frets, and three single coil pickups -- all qualities of the classic Strat -- including a basic body outline like that of a Strat. Instead of a typical Strat blade style pickup 5 way selector switch, there are three individual ON/OFF mini-toggle switches, each dedicated to a pickup. These mini-toggle switches allow for any combination of pickups to be selected, including the very useful "all on" and "all off" selection. There's just one volume and one tone control, but with the tone control potentiometer.
