Location: Brighty in Blighty | I'm blowing hot and cold. Here's the thing...
Whilst I don't doubt it's a great guitar I've never a fan of black guitars. I know it doesn't affect the tone etc and there is no real reason behind it.
Having said that I kinda like then dislike the blue sunburst finish too. Some days I like then others I don't. Go figure.
I think if I'm shelling out that amount (and remember I have to pay 24% tax on top of that price) I really ought to be 100% happy with it.
Add to this the fact that I cannot decide whether I prefer cutaway or non cutaway and it's a nightmare. And then there's the thing about getting a matching Adamas I / II set. Oh and the teal finish Stuart is selling...
Yes I'm a loony -- "just play it!" |

But Dweezil... That's not really BLACK black. It is kinda carbon fiber (fibre) Adamas Black. :D

Location: Upper Left USA | Hey, when you put on those Raybans isn't it all Black?
Hmmm, so the Royals are over taxing again? We Colonials didn't put up with that...
Good time to just enjoy what we have. |
