Anyone have old video of their band from high school?....

A little embarrassed to be showing this, as I had only been playing guitar for a few years.
This was at the 'Battle Of The Bands' in 1987 at our high school...and we won! We called our drummer 'Animal' (as in the Muppet Show) That's him on no coffee.

...and warning!!! spandex alert!!!

Love the Ibanez! I had the same one around the same time. I saved for months to buy that thing. Was about $350 or so if I remember correctly. Wish I still had it.

Ya I loved that guitar at the time, was my first 'real' guitar...I saved forever as well.
The neck was unfinished on the back, it was really comfortable. It was wider and had a flatter radius than most necks at the time.
I'd grab another now if I saw it for sale.

I see them around but they are more than I want to spend. It was a PITA to play sitting down. If I could pick one up cheap I would grab it. Here's one.

That is priced very high, but it looks like it's in 'like new' condition.
I looked around and it seems $400 is more the normal asking price.
