Members costch Posted January 20, 2010 Members Share Posted January 20, 2010 I don't particularly know why I wanted to post this (maybe it was that awesome Twist I saw in that one "who's got the bigger dick" thread). They're just so awesome. Tell me if I missed any.

Members costch Posted January 20, 2010 Author Members Share Posted January 20, 2010 I suggest that you get this book (inspiration for this thread, I suppose): http://www.amazon.com/2-000-Guitars-Tony-Bacon/dp/1607100126 You will be jonesing like a drowning man for air after taking a look through it.

Members costch Posted January 20, 2010 Author Members Share Posted January 20, 2010 noice don't like the Fall Out Twats Corvette association though Yeah, that's a damn shame. Although, would you refuse to play an SG simply because of the AC/DC (that is, assuming that you dislike AC/DC) association? I think not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Instrospection Posted January 20, 2010 Members Share Posted January 20, 2010 The Astro Jet looks like it has Fetal Alcohol Syndrome....TK300's look really cool though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members costch Posted January 20, 2010 Author Members Share Posted January 20, 2010 The Astro Jet looks like it has Fetal Alcohol Syndrome....TK300's look really cool though. Agreed. I don't know just what they were going for with that one. Gretsch really ought to reissue the TK300. Hopefully the quality would be up to par.

Members costch Posted January 20, 2010 Author Members Share Posted January 20, 2010 Take a look at this: http://detroit.craigslist.org/okl/msg/1528468136.html Modified as it may be, I think that it would make a worthy instrument. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members costch Posted January 20, 2010 Author Members Share Posted January 20, 2010 AC/DC rules. I don't know about that. It's not that they suck, they just lack variety and creativity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MrMunky Posted January 20, 2010 Members Share Posted January 20, 2010 I was going to insist that the SuperAxe isn't obscure, then post a host of youtube videos featuring Chet Atkins . . . But I couldn't find a single one. So you win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members costch Posted January 20, 2010 Author Members Share Posted January 20, 2010 Seeing as how only one person is known for using them (well-known as he may be), I think that it still qualifies as being pretty obscure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members gearnut Posted January 20, 2010 Members Share Posted January 20, 2010 I had a committee for a while. Pretty neat guitar, although I remember the pickups being seriously lifeless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Harry_Manback1 Posted January 20, 2010 Members Share Posted January 20, 2010 I totally dig those Corvettes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Instrospection Posted January 20, 2010 Members Share Posted January 20, 2010 I don't know about that. It's not that they suck, they just lack variety and creativity. When I want variety and creativity, I listen to those bands. When I want rock n' roll, I reach for Chuck Berry, the Ramones, Motorhead and AC/DC. You don't need a full 5 gears when 4th and 5th gear rule hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
