Future New Guitar Day Help...

Which of these do you suggest? Give me whatever reason you think. I dig them both. And I need a V.

Well the Schenker one you could at least go out in public with. Never buy factory graphics....

If you want tacky artwork, buy tacky artwork, not a guitar with tacky artwork. The other reminds me of these guys...

I like the white and black...but put the zombie pups in it.

If it was a 7 string also...I would orpheo your azz.
 
Re: Guys, I'm torn...FNGD help

White and Black definitely - You never know when a formal-attire gig comes up. :-)

Uh oh - I violated the "no factory graphics" rule.... The things you learn on this forum.. LOL

Damn ..beat me to it. One of the best episodes of Star Trek Ever. Frank Gorshin was a great actor, and awesome also as Riddler.
I love the way they dropped the bomb..it was like.."no, he's black on the left, I'm black on the right"..like making a point of the absurdity of judgeing someone purely by color.
And then they were left to fight each other endelessly in that littel capsule in space..great!

I like where the vol knob is betta on the sharp V but it would be hard to use it out because of the graphics but I dont like actives so for that fact id go with the schenker V
 
Re: Guys, I'm torn...FNGD help

I do have Black & White Zebra set of Duncans - PG/Custom....looking for a new home.

But wow - no love for Peace Sells? Been listening to Peace Sells all week. :headband:

The Mustaine is just Shreddy goodness though. Makes you want to play fast!

FWIW, I like the Megadeth one a lot better and I'm not even a graphics guy. I just really hate the Michael Schenker dated black/white thing and think the Megadeth one looks so much cooler. Plus, I like the headstock better on the Megadeth one. :cool2:

Just about every original Star Trek dealt with a societal problems and personal hells. Loved it.

so anyway, guitars.
 
Re: Guys, I'm torn...FNGD help

I really vote neither as the Dean just looks over the top stupid and I also agree with Wattage and the Dean as cool as it is it is such a signature thing...I'd never play that or a red, white and black EVH Strat or a Dean ML with the lightening bolt graphics or anything else that is so much a signature thing to look at...

But, if you have to have one of those go for the MS V
 
Re: Guys, I'm torn...FNGD help

Yeah, I'm going with neither. I think once a guy is over 27 years old, guitars like those look juvenile. I know that's an elitist position, but it's true. There is such a thing as an age appropriate image as a guitarist, and both those go way past the line unless you're Dave Mustaine or Michael Schenker.

I couldn't imagine strapping on a Dime graphic guitar or anything of the sort. I can play metal, and even though it's not my favorite genre anymore, even if I did, I'd still feel silly playing a midline stepping stone metal axe.
