Abasi Concepts/Larada Megathread

I missed it, what did he say ?

Frank's family, apparently.

Mr. intergerdy claims hes "family"

 

[GXPO]

The only family I can see commenting on Falbo guitars is 'Sam Falbo', so maybe it's Sam? Is that you Sam? Not that it matters massively, but the new account with supposed information is a little fishy.

I love how Tosin said he got his guitars then Integrity (Frank) claims to have surveillance footage of them getting their property? So? They said they grabbed their property. What's your point?

I wonder if this whole situation thing has any effect on Fishman pickups. Does Falbo still work there? Will Abasi guitars still use their pickups if they have to deal with him? Will Tosin maybe endorse another pickup brand now?

I'm sure it won't change a thing.

Fishman has nothing to do with any of this and I’ll continue to endorse their products. Great company and killer product.

This is a great design Frank. It accommodates us thumb over players.

Thumb-over technique high up the neck on an 8 string? =) It's already a crippled and unhealthy enough technique on a narrow 6 string neck, makes me cringe. Players need to break their bad habits.

I do this too. Lots of player do this. Even Yngwie Malmsteen. His technique does not look unhealthy to me:

I also play like this. Probably 70% of my playing I have my thumb over like that.

What part of that man looks healthy to you.

His playing technique looks healthy and very efficient. Except when he uses his teeth, that maybe not so much.

There's an easy solution, just have someone stand near them and jab them in the thumb with a pushpin whenever it creeps over the top of the neck. That's what my classical guitar teacher did to me when I was a kid.

He already dresses like he's a getaway driver in a John Wick movie.


Actually is there a way to make that happen?

If you take a peek at his Instagram it's pretty clear the dude also knows how to wheel. I don't think you can fit that many unfinished guitars in a R8 though

I think I'll stick with the thumb over...
My hands are too big to not do thumb over...

I've got pretty big hands and have never had a problem with hanging my thumb over the neck. Classical conditioning works

If only people were born without these stupid thumbs.
No thumb...no need to stick it somewhere.
