Ah! well a-day! what evil looks
Had I from old and young!
Instead of the cross, the Albatross
About my neck was hung.

Lol, yeah it seems Seventy Seven's naming is inversely proportional to the quality of their guitars...one of the few brands I've honestly never heard a bad thing about! Originally Posted by Hammertone

That's the part that everyone seems to be missing about that Collings: the scale length is 24 1/8". That's the bit that really got my attention. (Not that I could afford it though) Originally Posted by Hammertone

I was on the Warmoth site this morning customizing a semi hollow with all tort"ish" shell binding and the neck as well (not hand poured of course) was fun, looked cool and if a person knew what they were doing could put together a really nice small semi hollow for a lot less than 6k, Collings and probably the Devisor as cool looking as they are (or not) just sayin. I was thinking how original I was being binding my fantasy guitar in tort...I guess not. Originally Posted by Hammertone

It’s so interesting, our individual perceptions of beauty. The look of that instrument, and others with that aesthetic style, is not my cup of tea at all. Perhaps if I viewed it in-hand I might feel otherwise, but I doubt it. Originally Posted by skykomishone

Coleridge is silent about the strap width and whether strap locks were standard.

New video from D'Addario with Pat Metheny and the new Ibanez signature:

He holds the guitar, but never plays it or talks about it. Originally Posted by matbard

From the way it looks, the way it is set into the body with 3 screws,

I forgot, does it actually exist as a production instrument...?

Pat Metheny is using his PM model with CC pickup extensively since many years. The prototypes of the production instrument were shown at the NAMM, so they are supposed to be on thje market in the next months.

I hope you’re right about the long magnets, but that pickup mount by itself doesn’t mean much. Originally Posted by YOGA64
