Score at $150! I thought mine was a bargain @ $400. Where did you find it?
Mine did come with a white pickguard, I still have it.

My '98 Cote Continuum. Swapped out the Fralins for Nordies, and put in an Audere pre. This baby is MONEY!

I love how the Aria Pro's version is called the Precise. Lol. I'm assuming Fender sued them? Lovely bass too.

And that green finish above is to die for!!!! Beautiful!

Just a short comment about the widely used phrase "Lawsuit Era". There were NO LAWSUITS. Gibson threatened to sue Ibanez (Gaki Gen) because the headstock on some of the Les Paul and SG Copies was the exact same as a Gibson headstock(the Mustache Headstock). Ibanez shortly after started their own designs in around 1979.
Matsumoku continued making guitars and copies well into the 80's. Check out this link to learn more. http://knolt.com/lawsuitguitars/
