Ou7shined Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 They certainly broke the mould when they came up with that one. What does that big bar (which looks like one of my kitchen cupboard handles ) do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly, long is the new comfort Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ou7shined Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 That's not what Mel says. /smut I was thinking that it was sprung loaded with the pups like some crazy whammy so you could wobble them for a tremolo effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete.young Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 I had one of these when I was a teenager - at least, the 4-string version. Wish I still had it - if this were a 4 it would be mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
