my name is andrew desrosiers. i designed the bladerunner in 1982 and manufactured it under the name crusader. the company name was david andrew guitars. we could not make enough of them to keep up with demand so we licensed it to guild guitars. it was doing well but fender bought guild and discontinued all of guilds electric guitar line

The Blade Runner was designed by two guys from the Boston ares one of who handled some of Guild PR or photos or something. They had the real high, fat frets that are good for metal and were originally finished in white with day-glow pink, green, yellow and blue cutouts. There must have been other colors also because there were black decals for the white one and I also have some white decals as well. A note about there popularity; Joe Perry is playing an all black one in the Walk This Way video they did with Run DMC.

I have one of these with no serial number. Looking for information related to what that might mean. Was told that it was THE original prototype when I purchased it in 1985 or so.
