Everyone because thicker strings are the answer to all life's problems.

And fuck, I'd buy that monstrosity if it didn't cost a significant portion of what I make in a year.

Where's he selling, anyhow? I'm assuming ebay, but I don't know his name.

Speaking of that sort of thing, how do you feel about reversed headstocks, like Jimi, the Thunderbirds, and this Xaviere?

Same sort of result as a fanned fret or not?

I have to admit, the guitar I have with the longest sustain is Mr. Malden's Subhuman. I once put it down after a song, then looked around to see where that noise was coming from... oh hell, it's still playing low E. It's through-body strung, and... hm.

That might explain it. The length past the tune-o-matic is really long, and it's especially long on the Es.
I might have learned something here I had not previously considered.

Up to 2009 in the thread, and I've just learned that Alto Music is actually a big-deal music store. I was there a few weeks ago. It's a drive north, but it's near a friend's house.
Very impressive place. But NAMM dealer of the year? Woah.

By the way, is anyone here good at figuring out wiring jobs? I'm really having trouble figuring out how I should do the rebuild on my Canvas.

Hey, this thread and forum. Good to see you are still a thing.

I have sold all my guitars except my Rickenbacker bass.
