If you can get an oldie, even better, as the Series was probably a lot better crafted a while ago. If you need your proof, Adrian Smith played his one with Maiden for a loooong time. I have an 1983 DX120. haha, it's not very playable just because teh frets are almost completely worn down and the saddles look like they went through an inner city neighborhood
