Play, Keep or Wood Chipper?

[GuitarStv]

Leviathan does nothing for me, so chip that.

The other two guitars though, are both awesome. The Falcon looks incredible with the mix of woods and the custom pickups. The Catalina is semi-hollow with great upper fret access and extra frets. I can't make up my mind. Keep one, steal the other while pretending to just play it.

The Catalina also has pretty impressive electronics.

For the percussion playing, there are five contact piezo pickups under the top plate and the back. In addition to the standard magnetic pickups, there is an acoustic and midi system on board, so the sound options are virtually limitless.​

play the falcon
chip the catalina
keep the beast from below

none of em really flip my skirt but there we go

 

[Sirion]

Keep the Leviatan: It looks awful, but there is nothing wrong with the configuration. I appreciate that it has a hardtail rather than a wonky bridge.
Play the Falcon II: The pickups seem like they might add sounds that I don't already to my collection.
Chip the Catalina: That bridge is a no-no for any guitar claiming to be advanced. It also resembles instruments that I have available too much.

 

[Aceman]

Keep the Falcon - I'd actually play that
Play the Catalina - interesting to goof with
Chip the Leviathan - Someone spilled something on the top

 

[Rex_Rocker]

I would play the Falcon as it's the only one with standard humbuckers and chip the other two. Sorry.

Negrini Brea

Arda Martyr II Hydra

Suhr Pete Thorn Signature

​

 

[beaubrummels]

I might keep all three. I like the form of the Brea and the bridge, I like reverse headstocks for how the strings feel, and the Suhr is a swiss army knife for playing.

 

[Seashore]

Had a look at the Negrini website... wooo. That ten string headless thing.

These guitars as seen in the photos:

Play the Arda - specs and layout are beautiful, inlay is too Ren Faire bumper sticker to bond with (and I love a good Ren Faire)
Keep the Negrini, if there's a tremolo I could get along with it would be that one
Chip the Suhr - aesthetically my favorite of the bunch but that knob placement is for the birds

​​​​​​

 

[Mincer]

I'd keep the Suhr and not have a use for any other guitar.

chip the hydra
play the brea
keep the suhr

i like the tops on the two that im not keeping but wouldnt really play em live much where the suhr could be a workhorse

The doctor will see you now

The classic

Double Hum

BMG Arielle

​

 

[Seashore]

This is a little tricky because the double-hum version is obviously most in my wheelhouse, but that precompensated one-piece bridge would be really annoying if I ran into intonation problems. Nevertheless...

Keep the double hum
Play the classic
Chip the melted explorer

 

[GuitarStv]

Chip double hum (yawn), play explorer, keep the Queen guitar.

 

[Securb]

The double hum is way more in my wheelhouse, but I have to keep the SSS. It adds something sonicly I do not have in the collection. That Explorer thing needs to go in the chipper.

 

[Mincer]

I'd keep the double hum, and play the normal SSS. The last one gets the chipper.

 

[JOLLY]

Chip double hum (yawn), play explorer, keep the Queen guitar.

Same here.

 

[Aceman]

Keep the Classic, because Classic
Play the Double Hum, because Double Hums
Chip the Explorer - hate the shape and pickups, the bar, the switches

I am not a fan at all of the May style of guitars or necessarily tone either. If Chip them all was an option, I'd do it.
