Initially here was the 230 and the 250, which were introduced around the time John C hall bought the company. These were slightly changed to the 220 and 260 around '92, introduced in 1992 with a bolt on neck, maple fingerboard, 2 pickups, 25" scale, in sunburst, natural and colours. Its styling was similar to the earlier 430, made from 1971-82, which had been designed by Forrest White (ex Fender production chief) and the guitar indeed looks Fender like. There was also a deluxe, bound, gold hardware version called the 250. these models were discontinued not long after that in favor of the 650's.
