    Some decent photography in here folks, must try and take a decent one of my Hellraiser, that photo doesn't do it any justice at all.
    Johnny, that Parker looks damn funky, but me likes that V alot.

    Ah, there's just not a lot of love for modern style guitars round these parts, most people seem to be into their vintage guitboxes, and stuff like Parkers don't really get much of a look in, so it's really just fantastic to see that there is a little bit of love.

    Not much love for 7 strings either, it seems.

    I like modern styles, the Parker just doesn't make me jangle is all. The Steinberger on the other hand...

    Some of us have more varied musical tastes than just Korn...

    7 strings > 6 strings , i dont care how you put it! Cant think of one advantage of having 6 strings over 7 myself.

    Playing style doesn't suit seven strings? You prefer the neck profiles of six strings? You don't need extra range and prefer not to clutter things? I like my seven, because it does a particular job, but if I'm picking up a guitar to noodle on, for sheer fun and playability, it'll be the Les Paul every time.

    I've never in my life even seen a 7-string in person (except at gigs obviously), let alone touched or played one. :p

    Could I be any more backwards?

    I'd definitely love to play one at some stage, but I think my guitar buying days are over. ;)

    Don't I at least get honorable mention for having the only non-bass 5-string? <sniffle>

    Afraid not, my only 5 string bass has been sold recently. ;)

    I'm actually culling the herd these days, rather than getting any more.
