A lefty USA T-51? I've never seen one. Or a lefty USA Daytona for that matter.

OH yea? Says who? In your face, Commodore!

No! "Only" $8995! For $2K less, one could pick up one of these!

Barker owes us both a brewski. LOL

Shame on you for not already knowing.

LOL! Yea...just not here, apparently.

You owe it to yourself, and I'm not even joking.

Sitting in with the Grumpys back in June (could it be that long ago already?) with my '58.

I like 'em. They're tasty.

Is that Stanley Jordan with a wool cap?

Oh wow....that's a good one!

Mint and pristine!!

Or it could be in reference to his notoriously sloppy live performances throughout his entire career. He got sloppy in the mid-late 70s due to dancin' with the H. I don't know what his issue was in the 80s.His playing was great in 'Song Remains the Same' era - prolly the peak of his live playing. He wasn't sloppy then. Nor has he been since '94 - but he hasn't been as electric or expressive. If I want precision, I'll listen to someone with flawless technique. Well, he's always been sloppy - even on the studio recordings. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy those recordings, and I'd rather hear "feeling" then steralized technique, but that has always been the knock on him.

As my dearly departed Grandpa used to say, "He's got a one mind track." No, he wasn't trying to be funny.

I got myself something, but I have to hide it or I'll end up finding it, opening it too early and spoiling the surprise. I already know my usual hiding places, so it gets more and more difficult with each passing year. Gosh , I hope I like it.

I was just having this conversation with a friend today about black cars. Same principle applies.

Right everyone! Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain!

FACKYO, Muse!

It should be a rule!It should be mandatory!

Definitely, and that further drives home Muse's "visual" point because I don't believe EVH ever recorded with that guitar.Which one and why do you think that? I know that the first LP was recorded with a bunch of things, including a 75 Ibanez Destroyer on RWTD, etc (the non-trem stuff), but I thought that he did use that superstrat with the PAF in it for all of the whammy stuff. From what I've read (and EVH might have been taking a page out of BFG's book of "stories"), he recorded with the Ibanez, the '58 V, and a non-Floyded Strat, but not the striped up Strat/Kramer "Frankenstein guitar because he didn't think that it recorded well. He used it (THEM really) for "the Look" while on stage, as it had become a trademark and of course the Floyd came in handy in live situations. Of course I could be wrong. Eddie has told his share of stories, too, but that was the gist of what he said in an interview years ago. No, that would be me. LOL Roll the tape!

"I want you to surrender" LOL!

No, that would be me. LOL
