This is a question Waste of money

I once paid a small fortune to a solicitor in a legal case. She got lost on the way to court, turned up late with the wrong papers and started an argument with the judge, who told her to "shut up, for the love of God". A stunning investment.

Thanks to golddust for the suggestion

Funny seeing the 'Jackson?' convo just up there...
Initially that was my reaction too (despite being fully aware of your taste in guitars) and then I got to thinking about it...

Really, a Les Paul or a Strat with the lovely Jessie on it would be a little bit... hmm... Brian Adams... if you get my drift. The guitars themselves are just far too common for a lovely lass and a thrash master such as your good selves.

It does give her a sort of avant garde hair-do, but it works. It totally works. And as for it being a waste of money, well, I spent £1200 on a 1960s 12-string electric with a whammy arm. After I've spent half an hour tuning it I dare not touch the thing...

Glad you approve, dude ;)



EDIT: Who the fuck puts a whammy arm on a 12-string? The Kelly that I've already got has got a Floyd Rose, and that's bad enough! The thought of your guitar is giving me the fear!

i have a locking nut and whammy on my yamaha strat type plank
you can whammy the fucker all day and it never looses its tune.
in fact i hardly ever have to tune it.

Some kind of demented tuning freak...
That said, it's actually got a set of rolling saddles on the bridge and the whammy is behind that, thus it stays in tune beautifully. It's great for lovely thick fuzzy chords that bend in a woozy, hazy kind of way.

Like, totally.

Locking nuts (as mentioned above by amoebaboy) are great too, but for me the rolling bridge saddles are where it's at.
