MG 44's were made 1992-93 only, they have a HSH set up with a Washburn under licence 600s Floyd Rose Trem and locking nut. heavily advertised when new as a Strat alternative with Michael Angelo Batio from Nitro appearing in magazine adverts and also in video adverts(youtube). I have an antique sunburst model (not an option in 1992-3!!!!) so it could be rare, plays fantastic no issues at all. Also have a MG20 HSS normal Wilkinson style trem alternative for Blues sets.
