OK after watching this thread almost get hijacked I'll add my two cents worth. :D
Loomis is awesome a great player. Then again so is Petrucci. I like both of them an awful lot.
Maple fingerboards are sweet. I wish more manufacturers would use them. In general I think there's way too many guitars with rosewood boards.
The Loomis model is an almost perfect metal guitar. It's simple and it should rock like a mofo. Of course if it had passive pickups so it would be easier to put in some BKPs it'd be perfect. :mrgreen:
It was a "isn't it a small world moment", not quite a highjacking
I like the unfinished maple necks that seemed to gain popularity with the musicman and wolfgang. I could be wrong, but I don't recall to many doing it before then. I'm not a big fan of the finished maple necks though, like on my Hendrix strat. They always feel "sticky" to me. I like the Loomis guitar, think I'll have Feline make one up for me in year or so. :D
