This is the first guitar I've bought in about 11 years, and I love it!
First the artsy picture:
Now the more pragmatic picture:
It's a Hagstrom Retroscape H-III in faded sky blue. It looks a little greener in person than it does in the picture. For reference, my amp is sea foam green.
I bought it from MF during their Memorial Day sale, so I've had it for about a month now. I wasn't sure I was going to keep it at first because I saw the new Fender Player Series right after it arrived and immediately started GASing for a new Fender. But I can't stop playing it, so it is definitely a keeper.
It has a slim neck, although not quite Ibanez Wizard slim, and the scale is 24.75". It's my first non-humbucker guitar, and the bridge pickup has all the jingle-jangle I've been missing. My only concern is the trem arm, which seems a little stiff when I divebomb (which is the only agony; everything else is ecstasy).
It loves fuzz, too. At the moment I'm going back and forth between my Algal Bloom, French Toast, and Swollen Pickle when I play it. I'm starting to understand why people rave about playing fuzz pedals with single coils. In fact, I was thinking about selling my Pickle because it doesn't sound that great with my other guitars, but the Hag loves it.
It's just too much fun!
