Unsuitable Guitars

This gets a few funny looks when I bring it to blues/jazz sessions.

I used to have a pink Spectrum. Nice guitar, but I couldn't cope with the Floyd.

Neck on it is lovely but the pickups are a bit iffy. One day I'll get round to asking Mr GuitarWeasel to make me something. Normal single coils don't fit the pickup routes.

I'm actually looking for a demo guitar for my new 'V' pickup range ... high output alnico 8 and select ceramic models ... and I was sorta thinking a Warbeast ... but my Mrs recons I'd need the Orc costume to go with it

if you can find one a mid 90s ESP grass roots would be ideal for that, and you wouldnt need the costume.

You're in good company. He still has one in his private collection IIRC, although you're unlikely to see him play it at Ronnie Scotts.

Question is, do you have the suit?

correct.
All my guitars have names.
Apart from the ESP, they are named after girls who've helped me through life.
For reference
Ibanez-Charlene
Jackson-Laura
Charvel-Sammie
Strat-Sarah
all remind me of the person they're named after.
ESP- the beast, an ex-colleague commented "thats a beast of a guitar", and it stuck.

That's not creepy. Nope, not one bit!

I can't get on with Strats either :-(

Thought I liked PRS for a while but they didn't really work for me in the long run.

Never got on with 'normal' Les Pauls, but every few years I'll buy one to make sure

I don't like thin necks or trems but I bought an Ibanez Saber

I'm not particularly. Don't mind those Ozzy albums, but I couldn't tell you the last time I listened to them. His immediate replacement I am a big fan of.

Bernie Torme? or Brad Gillis ?

Jake e Lee came about a year later - great player!

Lixarto

Bernie!

everything looks great on me.

Its just a cross I have to bear.

Fender mim hendrix tribute strat.
Loved the look of it, and what it was but the reverse headstock ended up proper winding me up when tuning.

Lixarto

And now I'm wanting one of these :-S
