Two hottest guitars ever[views:14397][posts:55]___________________________________ [Aug 23,2007 11:03pm - Niccolai ""] [img] get rid of the knobs, neck pickup, shitmore duncans, and maybe the floyd and those two guitars are pretty much as good as I could ever possibly immagine. |
| _____________________________________ [Aug 23,2007 11:06pm - NoodleFace ""] Make them 7 strings and I'll think about it |
| ___________________________________ [Aug 23,2007 11:10pm - Niccolai ""] Blasphemy! |
| __________________________________________________ [Aug 23,2007 11:17pm - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] I always judge a guitar based on how it plays and sounds, regardless of looks or features. And there's now ay to know that till it's in your hands and plugged into your rig |

And there's now ay to know that till it's in your hands and plugged into your rig Sure there is. I know the neck profile, hardware, HS angle, body angle, woods, body depth, fretboard radius, scale length, filliet, fret wire, and heel shape. :LOL: You can take for granted the fact that i don't base my taste on looks, but hands down KL sigs beat every other guitar visually and performance wise that I've ever played. If only they sold them in America.. |
| ____________________________________ [Aug 24,2007 1:15am - PatMeebles ""] I hate that shape. It looks so hoaky and numetal. |
| __________________________________ [Aug 24,2007 1:19am - Niccolai ""] I'll die before the strat shape or super strat shape is ever considered numetal. Isn't numetal like.. not even a thing anymore? I thought it went away. Could be worse though. could be a warlock. |
| ________________________________________ [Aug 24,2007 9:38am - DestroyYouAlot ""] I think he's talking about the archtop - I'm really not a fan, either, I tend to prefer a flat top. Those are insanely nice guitars, regardless. |
| __________________________________ [Aug 24,2007 9:43am - Niccolai ""] Word. I always thought of flat top super strat shapes as being numetal.. Like every numetal band on the face of the earth plays flattop RGs and AXs. |
| ________________________________ [Aug 24,2007 9:57am - tylerl ""] could they have gotten the idea from caparison? |
| _________________________________________ [Aug 24,2007 10:09am - DestroyYouAlot ""] I love how Max Cavalera has a signature guitar. To reiterate: A guy who only plays with four strings on his guitar has a signature guitar. |

To reiterate: A guy who only plays with four strings on his guitar has a signature guitar. Not to mention, it's a giant brazilian flag. Who the fuck bought one of those? I doubt they sold even one. If a relative gave me one as a gift, I would punch them in the neck. |

Isn't numetal like.. not even a thing anymore? I thought it went away. Could be worse though. could be a warlock. True, but it's not a real strat shape. I'm guessing what pisses me off about this shape is the folded edges instead of the smooth curve over the edge, like on my strat. |
| ___________________________________ [Aug 24,2007 12:24pm - Niccolai ""] Word. I'm not a big strat guy. I hate strat construction. Super strat shapes FTW! |
| ______________________________________________ [Aug 24,2007 12:31pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] The horrendous designs on the fretboard on the bottom guitar ruin it. Shit like that pisses me off. The Chimaira signature has virtually all the specs I want, but of course it has to have a fucking Chimaira logo in the goddamn fretboard. Booooooo! |

| _____________________________ [Aug 24,2007 2:44pm - cav ""] not pointy enough for me |
| ________________________________________________ [Aug 24,2007 3:09pm - hooker nibbling penis ""] Those things are like Mazda Miatas of the guitar world. |
| _____________________________ [Aug 24,2007 3:10pm - cav ""] looks like they have scalloped frets on the higher ones? |
| __________________________________ [Aug 24,2007 3:12pm - Niccolai ""] yea. the 12th to 27th frets are scalloped. |
| ____________________________________ [Aug 24,2007 3:24pm - Kinslayer ""] What the RR3? No thanks. I bet Bobby would buy it... I just bought that for tour so I didn't destoy my real Rhoads... If I had the money I probably would but I dont so I wont... |
| ____________________________________ [Aug 24,2007 3:39pm - paganmegan ""] Ah. Well, ask Bobby if he wants it. Price negotiable. |
| ____________________________________ [Aug 24,2007 4:50pm - Kinslayer ""] I may opt to buy the case... $30? Like my EMG I sold you that was a great deal... |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 24,2007 7:57pm - hungtableed ""] I am (as of Monday hopefully) beginning to pay off a green Jackson SL1 from Nick BMR. The shit is rocking nothing but EMGs. It is an understatement to say that this fucking guitar kiiiiiiiilllllllllss! [img] mmmmmmmmm, Jackson soloists. |
| _____________________________________ [Aug 24,2007 11:39pm - NoodleFace ""] Jackson's are awesome but I cannot stand the painted necks on Soloists. My RR-24 I had was a painted neck too and I hated it. |

| ___________________________________ [Aug 25,2007 11:20pm - Niccolai ""] The Jackson definately. Not so much the dean though. |

| __________________________________ [Aug 26,2007 2:46pm - niccolai ""] Well it's a Dean... So I'm betting it's made of shoddy craftsmanship. =P |
| __________________________________ [Aug 26,2007 2:51pm - niccolai ""] Desides, Lespauls have the bottom cutaway in the same location (19th fret) which means the same fret access, and lespaul DCs have even better access and DON'T look like a bunch of ugly is having a board meeting on it. [img] |
| ______________________________________________ [Aug 26,2007 2:53pm - ArrowHead likes Pie ""] ironically, though, Dean is one of the very few brands out there where the left and right handed guitars they produce are almost identical in quality/build. Not saying they're good, but the left handed models really are left handed versions of the righties. |

Incorrect. The neck heel on a les paul starts at the 13th fret, and is full width by the 15th, thus making anything past the 16/17th fret a painfully awkward stretch. From the looks of that dean, it looks like the heel probably starts a lot closer to the cutaway. |
| __________________________________ [Aug 26,2007 3:01pm - niccolai ""] Most dean heels are even friggin bigger then Gibson's. And the Cadillac is no exception. Deans are done 12 block with no spoke shaving on the heel. Gibson's are only 10 block, but with spoke shaving. [img] and the Gibby LesPaul DCs have practically no heel. I wish i had the cash to buy one. |
| ______________________________________________ [Aug 26,2007 3:13pm - ArrowHead likes Pie ""] What is spoke shaving? |
| __________________________________ [Aug 26,2007 3:18pm - niccolai ""] A spoke shave is a tool they use to give the neck it's C shape, it was originally used in early america to make wagon wheel spokes. Most deans would probably be done without a spoke shave and with modern electric tools, but they still use the old'n terminology. the amount of roundness is measured un blocks, the high the number, the more square the neck or heel edges are. 0 block being competely curcular, 20 block being completely square. it's really fucking confusing how they figure it out, and I don't completely understand it, so I always opt for no heel. The gibson doublecut, for example is 5 block, the heel starts around the 19ths fret, is very blended, and not square. [img] |

| __________________________________ [Aug 26,2007 3:43pm - niccolai ""] here's a video of spoke shaving. It doesn't really focus on the heel, it's more neck sculpting. because of the tail(can't remember the proper word for it) it's too hard to figure out the blocking, but it's probably like a 7 with a 5 straight: bennyhillifier |
