Members Gravity Posted October 12, 2009 Author Members Share Posted October 12, 2009 Every Schecter, ESP/LTD, BC Rich, Michael Kelly, Agile, etc ever. ummmmm no I wish I were a super-strat guy because the choices there seem plentiful The Hamers look awesome ... but the price tag! good lord no I'll just have to keep an eye out at my local stores Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ihavenofish Posted October 12, 2009 Members Share Posted October 12, 2009 Every Schecter, ESP/LTD, BC Rich, Michael Kelly, Agile, etc ever. every agile what? theres precisely 2 set/neckthru 6 string agiles with a 25.5" scale. everything else is 24.75 or long scale (27-30). you CAN custom order many models though with any scale you want. could order a al-3000 lp type with a 25.5" scale and neck through for example. price wouldnt be terrible, the wait is though.

Members panther_king Posted October 12, 2009 Members Share Posted October 12, 2009 And the reason you are avoiding bolt-on is...? If it's the 'Bolt-ons are cheap and don't have the same sustain or tone' excuse, you've been mislead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members _Idioteque_ Posted October 12, 2009 Members Share Posted October 12, 2009 And the reason you are avoiding bolt-on is...?If it's the 'Bolt-ons are cheap and don't have the same sustain or tone' excuse, you've been mislead. yeah, a good bolt on is better than a set neck on a factual basis, plus it's easier to interchange. Some guitars sound better as set necks though. Anyways, I need one of those hagstroms. I love my Viper 1000 with duncans but I hate 24.75 scale and jumbo frets. too fat and short.

Nah .. nothing like that. I know better. I have a Tele and an Ibanez Blazer (HH hardtail strat-ish) that get a ton of use. But what's making me ask this question is that Yamaha SHB 400 that I just got which feels unbelievably awesome to my hands. It's a set neck with a nice heel and a 24.75 scale. I've found that I prefer to tune standard E and Drop D on 24.75" scales and to standard D and Drop C on 25.5" scales. So, I'd like to find something like that Yamaha with a 25.5" scale. Here's some more pics of it http://acapella.harmony-central.com/showthread.php?t=2444978 And I'd like to find it for under $500. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gravity Posted October 13, 2009 Author Members Share Posted October 13, 2009 Anyways, I need one of those hagstroms. they are nice looking axes .. never had a chance to play one yet. I'm really curious about their fretboards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members panther_king Posted October 13, 2009 Members Share Posted October 13, 2009 Nah .. nothing like that. I know better. That's good to hear then. If you can find them around (used will be even cheaper) and if you don't mind the brand, Schecter makes some great 'non super-strat' models with set or thru necks. Just as a taste; the stiletto classic are a little ugly, but I like... and the Ultra's Then there are the standard Hollywood, C-1, 006, models that you see everywhere. Depending on your taste, you can pick any of those up for $500 used; especially here on the forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gravity Posted October 13, 2009 Author Members Share Posted October 13, 2009 that Ultra doesn't look bad I guess not all the ultras are created equal though? looking on the bay I see some for 1K and others for way less. Where were they made? What's the radius on the fretboard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where were they made? What's the radius on the fretboard? They're Korean... they sell new for 1k, but you can find them used for less. Like almost any schecter, their resale value is pretty poor. The problem is that less Ultras made and sold = less Ultras used = harder to find used ones. C-1's are everywhere though. I'm also gonna go and say a 14" radius... again, common with most schecters.

Members sxyryan Posted October 13, 2009 Members Share Posted October 13, 2009 That's good to hear then. +1 on the comment. Bolt ons an set necks both get love in my house. Also, I have always been fond of that Schecter. I hear they are crazy heavy... but they look cool as hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members d_dave_c Posted October 13, 2009 Members Share Posted October 13, 2009 Stick with Yamaha for the bang for the buck and look for used ones that are set/ neck thru. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Funkwire Posted October 13, 2009 Members Share Posted October 13, 2009 I've got a Fusion Blues FB-700 on layaway...it's 25.5" scale and a set-neck. Not easy to find though: A lot of jazz boxes are 25.5" scale, BTW. Regarding PRS--most of them are 25" scale. Paul Reed Smith thought it was a good compromise between Gibson and Fender.

Members Gravity Posted October 14, 2009 Author Members Share Posted October 14, 2009 Aria Pro's PE series guitars. I'm pretty sure it's a neck-thru design. I have a black one, and I it! I do like those Aria's. That guitar looks sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
