Members RaVenCAD Posted January 23, 2010 Members Share Posted January 23, 2010 They're stupid looking, but they're supposed to sound great. Personally, I can intonate my guitars well enough to not be that upset by them. Some people love those squiggles though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I can intonate my guitars well enough to not be that upset by them. Some people love those squiggles though. I mean, I can see the need/desire for something like this. I hate when I play one chord and another is out of tune. It's the worst. But, this just strikes me as {censored}in' weird. I'v seen fanned frets and all that, but nothing like this.

Members Fuelish Posted January 23, 2010 Members Share Posted January 23, 2010 I'd hate to have to find someone to do a refret down the road.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members poolshark Posted January 23, 2010 Members Share Posted January 23, 2010 Since this is something clearly aimed at rhythm players (Hello no bending or heavy vibrato ), why would they offer Floyd'd guitars? I mean, people will buy what they want, but it seems kind of counter-intuitive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
