Hurricane Guitars

[Horus]

Do they still make them? Because I decided that I want one for the sake of saying "I have the most 80's guitar ever made by man."

I believe they died in the 80's, along with perms and spandex...I've tried finding stuff about them a long time ago when I first got into Becker and Cacophony and came up dry..

The only thing I can tell you is that they were made by Morris Instruments in Japan in the 80's and there rare as fuck, although they do come up on ebay once in a great while, and actually go pritty cheep, or have in the past, I don't think theres a set market value for them, there worth what someone willing to pay basically. Theres 2 Hurricane basses on there now, but I have a fealing there a bit more common.

spandex isnt dead!!!

My other guitarrist actually has a hurricane, and it either sounds like shit, or sounds fucking awesome. Depending on what amp you're playing it through. But I dont know why, but I want one SO BADLY!!!!

 

[War_Blade]

Do you have a Washburn A-20? I'd love one of those.
