If 9s are good enough for the likes of Eddie Van Halen, they're good enough for me.


I tried 13's once.

It really was ridiculous!

I just prefer 10's, they're meatier.

Which is good if you have meaty fingers.

I'm actually going to call it Vandenberg too. All you need is your Kip bass and HC will be ready to play to veritable stadia of oozing oestrogen!

£195 S/H

It just arrived this morning and played like SHITE (the guy said it had just been set up - MY ARSE!). I've just set it up myself and it plays superbly. The neck is a bit thicker than on my LTD but I've never been too into thin necks. I'll be sticking a trusty old TB-6 and a '59 in it next week I think although the stock pickups aren't the worst I've heard.

Incidentally, the body is fucking tiny like.

Well I just got my Loomis. It's a beast of a guitar but it needs the frets levelling pretty badly.

EMG 707 actives, neck thru joint (set in neck), Real Floyd 7, Grover tuners.
