I'd heard of a Cherry Metalflake one out there, but this is the first time I've actually seen one/it. Stunning!

Gentlemen, START YOUR ENGINES!!

We have a member who lives in Santiago, Chile.

 

[cmatthes]

The seller is also a new member.

That's a hot guitar. Somebody's gonna pounce!

I'm out, the neck is to long! /emoticons/default_biggrin.png

All those frets confuse me. /emoticons/default_biggrin.png I can't recall being required to go past #17.

And another thing! Other than aliens, who has those tiny little fingers to get down there & use #34 or #35 or #36? /emoticons/default_laugh.png

All i know is that some day, i'd love to try...

I think those uber-high notes would work great with some two-hand shtuff, but you'd need to use the pick to get in there.

Wasn't the scale length on the Virts 26 1/2"? I'm sure it's still a tight spacing, but it wouldn't be as close a fret spacing as a 24 3/4 or even 25 1/2 would be. So even a chubby fingered alien might be able to shred a little back on it's mothership with Virt in paw/hand /emoticons/default_cool.png

 

[cmatthes]

The upper frets are pretty much upper-register mandolin spacing based on the ones I've played (5 or 6 of them over the years). I don't know that I'd ever get much past the 26th or 27th fret - I barely used the last couple frets on my Cali. Still, cool to have if you ever wanted it. I think once you get past 32 frets, dogs and dolphins are going to be the only ones to appreciate it anyway! /emoticons/default_biggrin.png

I don't think I have ever used anything above the 7th fret. My dream is to have a guitar like Scott Ian from Anthrax had - no frets after the 7th.

 

[JackButler]

I guarantee you that I'd have NO problem getting up there.. iirc the scale length IS longer than norm.

Pretty instrument. Anyone think this is gonna stay at $2500?

 

[cmatthes]

I think it SHOULD go higher, but the market is a bit odd right now. It may very well go to a non-US buyer as well, since the dollar isn't so perky these days. Two or three years ago, it would have probably been over $4k at this point in the auction...

 

[kizanski]

Two or three years ago, it would have probably been over $4k at this point in the auction...

Two or three years ago, it would have been GONE already.

 

[silentman]

That is the coolest color I've seen on a virt yet. Ebony board would rule on that.

This is true.

Ditto.. like chumming for sharks! /emoticons/default_biggrin.png
