No 1980 punk would have bought his guitar in a shop or be concerned with "a nice sound." And he wouldn't have gone to someone to get a piercing; he would have just stuck a safety pin through his cheek. But I guess we live in a different era now. Sigh.

This is what resembles the most , the sound you are looking for. It is fat and super clean . The price is right and the fingerboard and playability is very good. Plus, you have a good resale value if you ever need to upgrade to a better one. Also, with the money you will save, you an even buy a distortion pedal. Their.....that should keep you going for a while. Hey Henry
