My mate owns one of those, and while it had a good tone, I personally found the neck to be too chunky. Maybe thats because i'm so used to the neck on my Ibanez 7.

Anyway, nice of the members to share some info, cheers.

That's funny. I can never play with Ibanez's because their necks are too "wierd" in my hands.

There's no "Dream Guitar" guitar guys!! I mean there's not a guitar that is good for everyone!
It depends on the guitarist hands anatomy.. For exampe I just can't play with ESP..they feel...strange,bad...
Is a good company but i cant play with them..

Also theres no guitar that is going to play ALL the styles of music!!
You have to choose the guitar according to the style you want to play!

For any other questions..Feel free!! I will reply!

That's why later this year I'll be commissioning my first custom guitar.

What pickups are in your guitar?

That's how mine will be, too (might use ebony as the fretboard) except I'll have a Bill Lawrence L500-XL in the bridge for the Dimebag crunch and a something similar to either a Duncan JB or 59 for the neck. It will be bolt-on (in case it breaks).

ANY OTHER QUESTION ? ORLY ?

- When I chug down lager, my usual burping settings are : Attack=0 Decay=0 Sustain=5 Release=10. How about you ?

- Do you have any "guitaristic goals", like huuuh... grasping that David Gilmour bluesy soft oh so good touch (assuming you didn't already... ), playing so fast that Malmsteen would sit in a corner and cry when he sees you, writing the longest solo in the history of metal, that sort of thing ?

- Do you agree with the fact that signifiance symbolism bonded to language could not appear to be a failing intuition for the worsening of an experience detached from a complete fulfillment of the being ?

- When learning the guitar, there's a song that you play to your friends when they asked you to play, because it's the only song that you knew how to play more or less perfectly despite the fact that you are still learning and you want to show off a bit. My was Extreme's "More than words" (before I got an electric guitar \m/></\). What's yours ?

- A train left Grimsby Town at 11.25am travelling to Manchester. It travelled at 75m.p.h, passing through 8 stations. The journey took 2 hours 40 mins. What time did it arrive in Manchester?

- My Peavey's 6505 live settings are : Bass 8.5 Middle 2 Treble 6 Presence 6

- Guitar Goals... playing in 69/42 time signature and play at speed that people die like John "The God" Petrucci !! LOL
Well my etrenal goal,is to improve everyday as much as i can!! I will never stop that!
About soloing...maybe I would like to write the most influestial solo for the next Guitar generation!! Shit! That would be awesome and John would love that!!

- No I never did that!! I always played guitar for myself and not just to show off!! You can show off as much as you want at the gigs!!
In fact..i never used guitar to score women!! My appearence is just enough...

- I dont know the answer about the train...maybe it never arrived in Manchester! :LOL:

Nope. I'm more of a rythm player and I feel that with a string-through body you get more sound out of the guitar wood than with a tremolo system. I have an ESP M-307 I bought off eBay that came with a floyd rose and I absolutely can't stand it. As soon as I can, I'm going to have it taken out. It stiffens the strings way too much for me. Just far more trouble than it's worth. If a guitar has good tuning pegs on the headstock, there's no need for a tremolo system unless you want the whammy bar for your solos. I'm just not into those kind of solos. Whoever, I play guitar with can take care of that. Floyd Rose doesn't work well with my hands. They work better with your's.

Is your next guitar going to be a 6 or 7 string? Jeff Loomis has a signature 7 string with Schecter with a Floyd Rose. The body is made out of swamp ash.
