    Mmm, EMG's. Can't say I'm too fond of the body shape, especially on the top and bottom where the curve gets tighter.

    That's all parametric EQ stuff. Way too complicated. Are we musicians or scientists? Surely we cannot be both?

    I'm gonna guess two volume, two tone, and two 4 band eq's. As for the six switches...

    I like them, but they're way down the list.

    There's the likes of Benedetto, Warrior, Sadowsky, Wal, Pedulla, Listerud, Hot Wires, a truck load of vintage Fenders and loads more to get first

    I'm liking these at the moment. €2000 or so for a custom 7 string. I'd get one if I didn't need a new computer :(

    Nice. Get PC Peripherals to upgrade your PC on the cheap. Buy the guitar.

    Trust me. An upgrade is the way forward here. Why buy a new floppy drive, keyboard, screen etc when you already have one?

    Make an amp? I seriously thought about that before but it would cost more than to buy one tbh.
