Members Alecto Posted April 20, 2013 Members Share Posted April 20, 2013 What's with the single volume controls on dual-humbucker guitars? Haven't these guys listened to Jimmy Page? :robotmad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members gardo Posted April 20, 2013 Members Share Posted April 20, 2013 I can't decide . I just don't know.Looks great,kind of probably plays great except for the controls .This is one I would have to try in order to decide,so if you would like to drop it off sometime let me know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JRicoC Posted April 20, 2013 Members Share Posted April 20, 2013 Not.Somewhat unattractive to begin with and then it has zebra pickups ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members PurpleTrails Posted April 20, 2013 Members Share Posted April 20, 2013 Hot. Like others say, I don't really like the control layout, but I do like the body carve, flame and the quarter-sawn neck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kayd_mon Posted April 20, 2013 Members Share Posted April 20, 2013 Controls are fine by me. I'd rather have separate tone controls than volumes. Hot enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members larry50 Posted April 20, 2013 Members Share Posted April 20, 2013 A bit pale overall for me. Perhaps with a rosewood board .....? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members photon9 Posted April 20, 2013 Members Share Posted April 20, 2013 Looks like something Prince would play. Definitely not hot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members FrankenSteinberger Posted April 20, 2013 Members Share Posted April 20, 2013 I'm sure it's a lovely playing instrument, but I'm having a little trouble getting past the maker's name.I just can't see myself walking into a guitar store and saying, "I'd like to play your Skermetta"I made that mistake with the, "Dot on The Shaft" guitars, and I shant make it again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AlamoJoe Posted April 20, 2013 Members Share Posted April 20, 2013 In the words of my 17 year old....... Meh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Malcolm Ramone Posted April 20, 2013 Members Share Posted April 20, 2013 Lukewarm, looks well crafted, but yeah, awfully palle and unfinished looking. Headstock shape is rather disappointing. Probably plays like buttah though! -Adam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
