  • Anyone see the new Floyd Rose GUITARS??

    Just saw a couple of 'em at the GC on 14th St, NYC ... they look kinda hokey, and have the new Speedloader bridge. Priced at around $2k, I would say they would have to be amazing guitars, if they're priced in the Wayne/Tom Anderson range ... they didn't look that special, truth be told. NO nice tops or fancy paint jobs.

    Has anyone tried this guitar yet? Any opinions?

    That IS spendy, considering. I've seen them, but I haven't really checked one out yet. Do you know what the Speedloader system costs (retail) by itself? I can't say I feel compelled toward the Speedloader guitars, as long as I can get Steinbergers, but it's nice to have another option.

            Those are hideous. Why have a headstock at all? They are already making a guitar most traditionalists wouldn't like...why not go all the way?

              Steinbergers are great, and were developed by Anthony Philips, so I wouldn't expect any less.

              OT for a second: Maggie, I'm confused! Your sn is MAGGIE, but you have Arsenal as your avatar! Not a Newcastle fan?!

                I don't like it but it's still better with the headstock IMO... without it this would just look really nasty ( in a bad way...)...

Which is why many people play electric guitars but very very few of them are actually musicians.

                          Okay, it's a Strat, except with no tuning machines and that speedloader stuff. Wow.

                          And here I thought Floyd Rose would've been inovative...
