It kind of annoys me how they’ve taken all these options and put them into one guitar. It will definitely make it easier, but it takes the feel away from music. “Oh, I don’t need to be talented I’ll just flick this switch”…it’s not that way, but that is what it reminds me of, commercialisation. It will just wreck the feel of playing guitar, I like the idea of having 5 or 6 guitars, not one that is the quivalent to 37 guitars.

Sean > No problem, found it on your site so I linked back.

GuitarPlayer > Well I have a 9V battery in my LP for my active EMG pickups, I only have to change it every few months. But 4 AA batteries for 12 hours of play tops is kind of crazy.

Thanks for linking…I’ve yet to play one myself, and I hope to add one to the stable this year.

Yeah, you know… I prefer Gibson guitars, so if I were going to go buy a Strat I would probably just get this one for the extra versatility.
