Washburn Preacher Paul Stanley Signature

So how many companies has the Starchild switched between over the years. Anyway, this guitar is definitely better looking than some of the other dodgy pieces of crap that have had Stanley's name on it. The Washburn Preacher is a very interesting little beast. The deluxe model (shown above) is one of the more strikingly beautiful guitars that I have seen in quite a while. But my goodness you pay for it. Coming in at close to $4000 it better be good.

* Mahogany body
* Gloss finish
* 8 ply white binding
* Tone Pros® Bridge
* Stop Tailpiece
* Seymour Duncan Pearly Gates pickups
* 3-way toggle switch
* 2 volume, 2 tone controls
* Mahogany set neck
* Bound headstock
* Art Deco headstock inlay
* Ebony fingerboard with Pearl block inlays
* 22 jumbo frets
* 24.75" scale
* 12" fingerboard radius
* Double action truss rod
* Graph Tech nut
* Gold hardware
* 18:1 Grover® tuners

You can get an entry model about $1300, but that sexy white is just not available. Not that the black looks that bad.

I have to admit that until about five years ago I was a massive KISS fan. Then I got burnt out. So did my wallet. In fact I had a Limited Edition Ibanez Signature Series Iceman at one point. I sold it and bought three guitars with the money. If anyone wants an almost full collection of Psycho Circus comics just let me know.

What other crazy purchases have you made just because of the name on it?
