Ha Philly..you beat me to that one! Ricky Nielson from Cheap Trick. Was thinking about them recently as there is an ad on the tele at the moment using "I want you to want me" (can't be that good an ad as I can't remember the product :?)

All these guitars must make Les Pauls feel like they're made of balsa wood!

the top 2 are 7 stringers and you can take it apart so it's 4 separate guitars, he did get the top 2 back eventually, the bottom 2 are still missing

I'm full of useless information! :)

Post by: MDV on May 14, 2009, 07:51:54 PM: Double neck, I can see.

Anything else is pointless.

well it's glam... you can't spell glam without ridiculous hidden somewhere in there, his speed kills video taught me how to widdly widdly woo so he can't be that bad :P

oh and it's got the batio open string muters if you didn't notice them, takes out half the challenge of playing guitar!

Post by: murraymurray on May 17, 2009, 10:08:47 PM: I saw michaelangelo last year in a guitar "clinic", he only had one and two neck guitars though.
not at all informative but was fun as to watch him totally shred on that thing.
spinning it around, playing it over his head.
pointless - yes. awesome - yes

Post by: syr2012 on May 24, 2009, 02:55:14 AM: Call me crazy if you wish, but anything with more than one neck is just madness IMO. I'm a bit of a traditionalist, I've always preferred a single neck, 22 frets, 25.5 scale, and two pickups, one at the bridge and one at the neck that gets used rarely.

Post by: CaptainDesslock on May 24, 2009, 05:43:20 AM: honestly i think of instruments almost like people and double/triple neck guitars are off-putting for me, and that quad neck is simply for pointless w**kery :) MAB is a beast, but its still w**kery :)
