Well, being a fan of BC Rich guitars and EMG pickups, I suddenly feel really out of place here...what next? Peavey Amplification?

"You know what I'd really like? A fan fret that goes the other way, shorter scale for the low strings and longer scale for the high register. That way I can get flubby lows and brittle highs on the same guitar!"

Okay so I guess I'm just weird, because....

I have only heard one version of "Icarus Lives".
Actually, yes, I have... I've only heard the instrumental version. None of the remixes or even the vocal version (it has cursing, and I can't stand cursing in music, it takes me out of the experience because it feels too "human").

"well personally i'd use 9-52 gauge strings on a 25.5" scale for tunings like drop g"
Not quite, but a wrist problem forces me to use 11-48 (or lighter) for drop A, which is similarly absurd...

These pickups are way too hot
I know exactly what string gauge to use so I won't ask
I have a guitar with a D-activator X in the bridge, and I hate it. I'd actually prefer something with significantly lower output in ALL of my guitars. I never follow people's string gauge recommendations, because what I try is usually more comfortable (and I can't play on more than like 13 lbs of tension at the absolute maximum).

-guitars with graphics are cool :D

Not in general, but I've seen quite a few I like. I want a graphic of Lightning from Final Fantasy XIII, surrounded by the crystalline Lake Bresha, on a white 9-string.

Actually, to further unintentionally contradict the entire philosophy of this website (so it would seem), I've INTENTIONALLY left two of the strings (E and G) off of the acoustic I got yesterday, just to see how it changes what I play on it. :ugh:

I hope I don't get banned for this, but I take full responsibility for what I've said. :) (I think I just contradicted another one.)

I love Attack Attack!
There aren't enough deathcore bands out there!
I can't stand the feel of peanut butter on my genitals!

"There's a new signature guitar out. While there are features on it that I don't care for, I'm not going to sit here and nit-pick the .... out of it."

"We should have a reasonable debate about the many facets of religion."

"As much as what that person said bothered me, I'm going to reasonably counter their argument with facts and sources instead of childishly giving them neg rep."

"I'm quite happy there's more censorship on this site. The word "fuck" is too offensive for my eyes."

"I took the time to download and use Ishan's string gauge calculator/go to Hikky Z's String Assembler instead of making another string gauge thread"

"I disagree with your opinion, and I'm going to let you know by signing my negative rep because I'm not a giant soggy douche"

"Ebony is the worst possible fretboard wood aesthetically speaking, if you're leaving it blank. Unbelievably unremarkable to look at, even compared to the very cheapest cuts of rosewood."

that said all three are my own opinions :lol: (but I don't give out neg rep)

This next one veers away from the direction of the thread a little

" My $3000 custom S7 has wormholes in it....unacceptable....Ooooh look at that Rick Toone, it's unique but beautiful"

I am an absolute failure at art so far, so I don't really....know how to do that. I don't actually have the guitar in question either, yet. It'll probably just be a white fanned-fret Agile, I'll never be able to afford custom. :p
