 Re: Sawao's Guitars
I wonder where he got the blue poppy decal.
I could go for one of those.

 Re: Sawao's Guitars
I assume that as a member of the pillows, Sawao can get any stickers or graphics he wants.

 Re: Sawao's Guitars
I'm pretty sure that "target" decal is from Trip Dancer (though there is supposed to be a yellow circle before the blue circle, but w/e it's Sawao's decal.)

 Re: Sawao's Guitars
Fender Cyclone has been discontinued since 2006 along with Cyclone II and the Squier Cyclone.
EDIT
I just want to add that you can still get them through ebay or any other site like that.

Ever heard of a little band called The Who?
Also, they used a similar symbol on Carnival Tshirts back in the day, as I recall.

 Re: Sawao's Guitars
Oh so that's where it came from... I see that logo everywhere.

The symbol's history is irrelevant, since Sawao is almost definitely a fan of a band who used the symbol as a logo. Therefore, in this instance, the symbol on his guitar has nothing to do with an age old military/family symbol, but the band The Who.

 Re: Sawao's Guitars
If I ever get one of those artwork packs they used to sell at the concerts with the one life design thats made to fit around the Cyclone, I might have to pick one up just to make a Sawao guitar. I know what I said earlier but a Cyclone isn't necessairly a 5000$ vintage Tele. And yea, you can clearly see in the Ride on Shooting Star PV that his is an ESP but i'd still go with the Fender.

 Re: Sawao's Guitars
How do we know Sawao is a fan of The Who?

 Re: Sawao's Guitars
Me, Mare, and GR all play Fender Telecasters. Therefore we are all Manabe biters? I guess so. But yeah, the thinlines are pretty nice. For me, however, gloss necks are  and they piss me off because of the sticky. That said, I'd love a cyclone, if I got it for a good price. Cloudy sent me the One Life mega sticker, and I wouldn't mind putting it on something.

 Re: Sawao's Guitars
I've got one. Had it for awhile now. I like it quite a lot, it's my main axe. They're starting to go for more money on ebay nowadays, too. I also have those blue poppy sticker sheets...somewhere. I don't think it would look good on a red guitar.
Sanded down the glossy neck a bit so it's satiny. Much better now.

The only reason you'd end up with a Fender is because it's more readily available to you than the ESP models. Unless you get lucky on eBay.
