Location: GA USA | Yeah, it's like you're running across the stage and the flames are coming out of your fingers playing some meedly-meedly-meeeeee on the 18th fret. That's the only way to get the full effect. |

Location: Up North | Yeah, but they're still sidewards! Don't you normally hold the guitar with a slight tilt upwardses?
When I paint the flames on my 1537, that's how I'm doing 'em!

Location: big island | it's like the flames painted on a car. however, if the car is in reverse, then the flames are going the wrong direction. |

I like the Captain's explanation, makes me want to do the knee-slide across the stage! |

It's more the afterburner look as you slide left to right across the stage. :cool: |
