  1. not a bad price, compared to the origional
  2. thats an acquired taste of guitar i suppose, lol. i dislike!
  3. the stock pickups are better than on alot of guitars ive played, the ESP LTD range for example have for worse pickups IMO. anyhow i have repleced my 320's pickups with EMG's!
  4. it also misses the floyd rose! cant have it without a floyd rose!!!
  5. the good ol rhodes V still has my vote! if it were done with a nice quilt top with abalone binding around the neck, sharkfin inlays, quilted headstock laminate matching body, EMG's..... im picky but for 2000 i have to be! nicec guitar anyway! mike
  6. yeh, i just got a large diaphragm MXL condensor, and it sounds good, im itching to record with it now! tip on vox, use a pop shield, these are great devices that get rid of a lot of sibilance and popping in the words! cya laters mike
  7. yeh, happy new year... dont forget the resolutions of which i have made none, cos i know i wont keep any!
  8. 6 years... waiting for more guitar books in the post from amazon, come on, hehe! only a week to go.....
  9. wow, cool job awesome job!!!!!!! im gonna be embarassed to enter my guitar (when i have it done) into guitar of the month, my first also! hey man enjoy playin the axe! it sure looks the part! mike
  10. i really dont know. there is tax on stuff i think, but i really must find out! id not mind the smaller wire for my next guitar, as the bigger gaps for fingers would be good at the high end, mine will have a few extra frets well i gotta sleep! cya mike
  11. still a bit of a distance thing!
  12. damn i live in northern ireland so i cant really take advantage of your offer, gawdamn! i wouldnt mind some stainless fretwire
  13. if i lived in america id probably buy some of that SS fretwire, but i dont
  14. yeh i remember the vibrato on the rg320 was good, but its awesome with a scalloped neck!!
  15. yeh i know, but the ibanez is stuck at 25.5, unnless i get a neck etc... but i may just tune to Eflat im still thinkin about this! brothers guitar seems to be around 24 5/8 i havent measured, but it sure feels slinkier
  16. thats what i thought! yeh i have 9's on my ibanez and 10's on my gibbo kit thing! i was thinkin of tryin 8's on the ibanez, but i would need to adjust intonation and bust strings more yadda yadda....
  17. you may call me a dumbass or whatever, but how/where do you vote for guitar of the month!!!
  18. im not being a prick, but arent 9's normal strings, i play 9-42's and they are quite light. ive played 11's etc... they are heavy! mike
  19. thats a pretty guitar ill put it on my to buy list, along with all the other stuff ill never get, lmao!
  20. on the string tension thing.... i think the floyd may be slacker feeling because when you bend the string the trem moves as well, the TOM bridge wont budge. btw Vai did try a 7 string with high A, but claimed it broke too often so used the low B. i had a design for an 8 string i drew on CAD, but i think ill stick to 6 strings atm! i wouldnt mind a 7 or 8 stringer sometime!
  21. the cushion plate thing dug into the finish of my kit guitar, but its not very noticible, so i say go for one.
  22. you're late, im later, lmao :DB) merry christmas and happy new year all! have a good one!
