Me likey!

I thought it was pretty {censored}ing cool. It probably freaked a few people out too. It looked very realistic on the clips I saw. If Dre wants to drop a couple hundred grand (apparently) to do it then more power to him. As for the people saying rap IS {censored} and has NO talent eat a dick up..... you ignorant mother {censored}ers. Don't you mean ignant?

It's really not any worse than paying to see Britney Spears lip sync. I wouldn't pay to see a hologram, but if that's what people want to spend their money on, that's fine with me. I'm mostly in favor of things that separate people from their money. Capitalism!

Tune down a half step with the 10s, go back to 9s, get a guitar with a shorter scale, or get used to the 10s. Those are pretty much your options.

Sorry, I put that link for the 550 peso price range. They go up to like 220,000? I thought it was in dollars Even so, what's 220,000 pesos in US dollars? If the shipping isn't ridiculous, I may get one of the more expensive ones now that I'm thinking straight. 220,000 pesos is only $16,976 US. You should buy two in case one gets damaged in shipping.

For me, that's the big downside of a Strat body with nice wood/paintjob. Most of it ends up getting covered with a pickguard. Rear routing is definitely the way to go for something like that.

Oh my god! Hendrix used Photoshop!

This happens to me all the time. I find that my perception of good tone changes depending on what I heard just before playing. I have a bunch of tones dialed into my M13, and if I play a classic rock tone, it sounds great. I then play a scooped metal tone, go back to the classic rock tone, and the classic rock tone sounds muffled. I keep playing the classic rock tone, and in a few minutes, it sounds great again. A given tone can sound great or terrible when I first fire up my rig. One's perception of tone is not a constant.

Looking good, man!

Awesome! I love the stone on the bar. It's very appropriate for a man cave.

Looks great so far! By the way, that purple board is called "Barney board" after the famous dinosaur.

Anybody try one of these? http://www.guitarfetish.com/Aluminum-Flight-Case-style-Case-fits-Les-Paul-XV-500-XV-700_p_2199.html

Man, it's like he went out of his way to make the ugliest headstock shape imaginable. Then he thought, "OK, but how can I make it even uglier? I know, I'll put my name on it eight times!"

Super Strat with bridge humbucker, coil tap, and Floyd. Not my favorite guitar, but the most versatile.

Natasha got a new dress.

Also unacceptable: naming the guitar after a fictional character Uh oh. Only one of my guitars has a name, and that's my Strat, Natasha, named after Natasha Fatale.
