Do basses count?

I'm seriously considering this:

Did you like the feel? I played one recently and just couldn't get into it. My RG3120 is still the king Ibanez.

what about midi guits in the price range of 500$-700$, anything new? I have the sonuus midi converted but this is BS. I need a polyphonic midi guitar.

I admit that it was a limited play. I checked for dead notes , sustain (especially a 5470) and though it's certainly not setup right, it was fine. Might go back later and put it with a bit more testing....

But like I said, I can't afford it

Wait for the Fishman Triple Play.

Reminds me a little of my Freeway Though the Freeway is a flat top.

cool!

I'm about to go give it a bit more of a play.......remember, I can't afford it

It's in the "closed" room with I think a blackstar, again, it's just for fun.........I can't afford it

Edit. That was quick

It's nice a nice guitar. It's not 1899 nice, but it's nice. I'll safely be able to save my pennies on this one

Still, it's really pretty, absolutely gorgeous finish.

How is it we can fly faster than day

When the devil is put to the test
Test, test, TEST!

The day of creation was our finest hour it's
something we ought to defend
But it's been so abused since the first day of light
that no glory can come in the end

Young man cried the old man
There is victory in staying alive
And if you care so little for the world we're in
Why and what do you want to survive

Can't we try to let the past go by, with its lessons firmly
settled in our minds
To our children one by one and before the darkness comes
let us leave a world full of light of a different kind

In truth they should meet and with love their hearts should beat
And with patience solve the problems of our time
It wouldn't be so hard to do, it's only up to me and you
Let us not bequeath a life that is a crime

Seen from a height of a thousand miles the earth
looks the same as it did
How is it we can fly faster than day
but we can't find the things we need

They have a freeway that is not SA (synth access) I think they call it the classic. Trust me the SA is not worth it. It has ghost rider pickups in the saddle for the roland conversion. because it' picks up more of the body top then the strings it cuts out when using as a synth. Although there are no surprise ghost notes as in gk type systems.

Here's John McLaughlin playing one.

GC only carries the SA and they don't even have those nearby so can't check it out.

Your next guitar?
