What can I say, I love the Cardinals! A local collector had bought this one after I had modified the next one to fit his style and "sound". This one was stock and was rarely played for that reason. I ended up trading him a Korean something or other for it and gave it the treatment. The frets were re-crowned, the mini toggles modified to switch the pickups between series and parallel, the bridge pickup went to the neck and a Duncan Distortion went in the bridge. This baby is lean mean rockin' machine all the way. I had thought about a flushmount Kahler Flyer, but nah.
