Members ArKay Posted October 30, 2007 Author Members Share Posted October 30, 2007 The nice thing about the Stetsbar is that it basically mounts like a TOM; there's very little routing required. It seems to be the only sensible option at the moment for a TOM-equipped guitar, yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ArKay Posted October 31, 2007 Author Members Share Posted October 31, 2007 I agree with both of vcnyls' posts. I really love the green color. It is a very rare day ,indeed, when I like a green guitar. That color looks very good on that guitar. Also, the guitar looks much better horizontally as it would when someone is playing it. Turn your head sideways. See what I mean? Yes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Guitzilla Posted October 31, 2007 Members Share Posted October 31, 2007 It looks balanced now. I like it much better. Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RaVenCAD Posted November 1, 2007 Members Share Posted November 1, 2007 looks like it was carved out of wood from the Ugly tree. ... which was then cut down, cut into a bunch of ugly sticks, and then used to beat the ever loving {censored} out of the ugly guitar..

Members Procreatur Posted November 1, 2007 Members Share Posted November 1, 2007 i would make the upper bout a little narrower by taking material from the neck side of the bout about 1/4 inch (6mm) and make a larger radius curve where it meets the neck to make the lines flow from one side of the neck to the other. i like the guitar, but for me to buy, i would need the things mentioned above done.

Members Brewski Posted November 1, 2007 Members Share Posted November 1, 2007 Trem looks like a very complicated contraption. I recommend a Floyd or Stop tail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dewysoss Posted November 1, 2007 Members Share Posted November 1, 2007 Is it a hollowbody or a solid? I'd buy one with a TOM, 2 P90 stacks, and solid black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members tmdguitar Posted November 1, 2007 Members Share Posted November 1, 2007 looks similar to like a solidbody version of the Wes Borland Yamaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members warriorpoet Posted November 1, 2007 Members Share Posted November 1, 2007 Take the bottom cutaway back a little, shape it like a Seagull acoustic and you'll have that balance. Make the lower contour a little closer to the "butt" and it'll have more "movement". Here's the cutaway I'm thinking of: Here's a nasty, sloppy paint job on the cutaway: Move that lower curve back a touch (so it's not so visibly connected to the top one) and I think you have a winner.

Members Kitarist Posted November 1, 2007 Members Share Posted November 1, 2007 what would be the price for the guitar willing to buy it if the price is reasonable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members guitarNed Posted November 1, 2007 Members Share Posted November 1, 2007 What do you think?I kinda like it! Here's my big suggestion. (hesitates) Ok: I think I might like it better if the trem became a hard tail string through. There, I said it. getting rid of the trem would focus attention on the pure P90 goodness. Sustain, overtones, tone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Hemroidius Posted November 1, 2007 Members Share Posted November 1, 2007 Pretty cool looking. Trem system looks a bit "busy", but if your friend would like to ship me one at no cost for a free in-depth evaluation, I imagine I could get over it.

Members Juniper Monkeys Posted November 1, 2007 Members Share Posted November 1, 2007 I like the originality, and the headstock is a nice clean shape, but goddamn is that upper bout ever ugly. Can't go wrong with that pickup setup though:thu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SkippyX Posted November 1, 2007 Members Share Posted November 1, 2007 Yes Awwwwww, man. Why'd ya do that?I was imagining a couple of hundred guys looking at their computer screens w/ their heads tilted sideways.......Got quite a chuckle out of that, I did. And then ya rotated the photo........Anyways - I'm on the fence on the horns. Looks OK. It's different. Not another knock-off and not (yet) another pointy guitar. Someone else said it. Different in an understated way.The whammy bar is cool by me. I like that.I'd get rid of the dots on the fretboard. Or move 'em. Or do something different w/ them (and no, I don't mean GREAT BIG ABALONE). If you're going for a non-traditional look, why go with an absolutely traditional dot layout?My $0.02.......
