Taste of India - Aerosmith

I've given this a lot more thought than was probably necessary (or healthy), and there are only two things that are proper dealbreakers for me: - Really thin necks, front to back. I used to own an old Rick 4001 and a Fender Geddy Lee, both had very thin necks which gave my hand cramp. - Silverburst There are a lot of other things I dislike but they're generally easy to change.

Machine Messiah - Yes

No, No, No - Deep Purple

The Wretched - NIN

Sexy Boy - Air

Dirty Boy - Cardiacs

Hollow - Pantera

Elephant Man - Mastodon

The Heaviest Matter of the Universe - Gojira

I'm sure I nearly bought that once!

Ah, but do you mean the traditional way (equal distance between saddle contact points, so greater space between the thinner strings) or the Phil Lesh way (actual equal distance between strings, so wider saddle spacing on the lower strings)?

The Strain - Bonzos

Jesus - Queen

Sea Beast - Mastodon

Hold Your Head Up - Argent

The Precision sounded better on all examples to me. I like Stingrays but only when they're sitting in the mix a bit more - solo they sound a bit like a duck.

Why's that?

Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is? - Chicago

The Small Hours - Holocaust

I'm So Tired - Los Paranoias

Dog-Like Sparky - Cardiacs

I saw QOTSA support the Foos at the Stratford Rex of all places, around the Rated R era. My main memory of them is Nick Oliveri playing a see-through Ampeg bass. I've never been a big fan but the Mrs likes them. Anyway, getting slightly back on topic, my former cover band had No One Knows in their set when I joined, but didn't think it necessary to drop tune to C. It sounded terrible and I refused to play it without tuning down.

The German Guns - Baldrick

No You Don't - NIN
