Members curseoftruth Posted November 19, 2005 Members Share Posted November 19, 2005 For some reason I am attracted to the strange ones. Kind of wish I wasn't but I am. Case in point: Schecter A-5X Celloblaster. 5 string guitar tuned in fifths. Squier Subsonic Baritone Showmaster Now a MIJ Squier Venus XII 12-string is coming into the arsenal. And I have my Fernandes Ravelle Deluxe, not a very common guitar (there are a few of us believers here I know!) Some Pix: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members curseoftruth Posted November 19, 2005 Author Members Share Posted November 19, 2005 You and I have the same taste in guitars -- I've wanted a Jetstar forever and I love those Yamahas! I've bid on a ton of the DeArmonds on eBay and never won. I lost out last second on a brown setneck Jetstar Baritone a couple of years ago (before I knew about eSnipe). There is a pawn shop by my house that has a really beat up bolt on for like $100. It's white. Been there for at least 5 years now. I've thought about getting it and finding some Goldtones to stick in it. Nice collection! Going up to GC to pay for my Venus 12 String in a few minutes!!!

Members baja85 Posted November 19, 2005 Members Share Posted November 19, 2005 Save The Pine Weasel: Those Yamahas...my knee-jerk reaction was to recoil in disgust, but the more I look at them (and I can't help but doing so) the more I am starting to really, really dig them. The look of the neck, the way the headstock and lower horn are similar, and the P90s...wow. What can you tell us about them? ALSO! Curseoftruth, I believe the guitarist in Bloodbath used one of those Schecters, tuned A. Nice looking guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P90s baby!! Thanks man! yeah, the original headstock said "Citation". I've replaced the original humbuckers with the p90's, and replaced the neck with a carvin bolt neck. And added the paisley patterns. cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The neck bindng and locking tuners are nice touches. They're very responsive to your playing. The only functional thing about them I can think that might turn people off is that the neck is really narrow. I think it's 39mm at the nut.

Members curseoftruth Posted November 19, 2005 Author Members Share Posted November 19, 2005 Mike at myrareguitars.com has one of the Yamahas for sale. I've been eyeballing it, thanks for the details man. Money will stop being a barrier within the next 6 months, so I need to put on the list.

Members jeffcoop Posted November 19, 2005 Members Share Posted November 19, 2005 Of the six Nelsonics I've owned, the Deco is my favorite. Yes, the shape copies the Malden Karma. But the Karma's an oddball, isn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
