I Want a Headless

[Frankencat]

I have had a few Sires on my bench and in my opinion they are very meh, nothing special really.

I had this on my bench yesterday, there is definite a step in quality from the the Boden Essential to this Boden Classic.

Damnit, you edited! I was going to make a joke.

I didn’t want to be burdened by what has been.

Been generally impressed with my Essential, except the wiring job is complete trash. Already lost 3rd and 5th position on the switch, not sure if it's the switch or the wiring. They used 86 gauge wire, I swear. It's like Angel hair noodles.

I just want to know why the dudes holding these Aristides for the camera all look so dour. They should be beaming! Maybe it's a Nordic austerity thing. "You grow up watching Ingmar Bergman movies and tell me how much you want to smile. Now go watch Rambo 8 and shut the fuck up!"

I don’t know but maybe I can Tell you, when my Aristides arrived.

I have a set of EMG Revs incoming so I will probably swap it all out at that time.

Please let us know how you like them. I've been interested since they were released!

Me too, I finally broke down and bought a set.

I haven’t tried those yet either. Someone told me they sound like custom version of a Duncan custom customs ( way too much custom ) but I need to try them.

 

[Jynx]

Thanks. I hate it.

Is that Devin Townsend’s?

My Washburn USA P3 had a Duncan Custom in the bridge and a Custom Custom in the neck. It was absolutely the best tone I've ever experienced, like thunder, but I'm convinced it was because of the guitar itself. I put that same pair in my Washburn Steve Salas and they sounded like a can of bees.

 

[Jynx]

Is that Devin Townsend’s?

Yeah.

 

[norminal]

Yeah.

For a second I thought it was the new Kiesel Buckethead model.

Someone whose opinion I trust is getting one of those Valravn guitars I showed a couple of pages back. If he likes it I might pull the trigger.

Damn these guitars are nice.

 

[Warmart]

Kinda like these Ronciswall Kamaitachi's, small builder out of Italy. Cool thing is you can use the arm rest to open large cans.

 

[Jynx]

There's a lot of funky small builders around Europe these days.
