Really like this guitar a lot. For the more outrageous finsihes work best with the Tyler headstock design. Very nice indeed.

...it would be nice if the armrest had been covered too...

It's what James Tyler does, he likes to make a statement. The head stock, the arm rest - have you seen his relicing which he calls "bacon"?

 :x

Yep! I know it's his concept and I think Tylers are way cool, plus they sound great. Just the armrest distracts me from the amazing finish. But. at least someone who doesn't copy CS relics.

But hey Philly, you have owned a piece of almost just about every guitar brand out there, ay?

 :lol: Not really, but quite a few!

Gretsch and Rickenbacker are the obvious "classics" I've never considered buying.

Of the more mainstream brands, I've never had an Ibanez, Dean, Schecter, Jackson/Charvel, BC Rich....

Never had a Suhr or Tom Anderson either.  :?

I've definitely had more than my fair share of Gibson, Fender, PRS and Hamer though!  :lol:

Very nice indeed! But the multiple logos on the headstock sent my eyes funny.

That headstock actually looks cool. I'm no fan of the normal Tyler headstocks. Congrats on the new guitar. I bet it plays and sounds smashing. I'll have a listen to the clip later today.

I'm surprised this somewhat leftfield instrument seems to appeal to so many in here.

I expected head stock bashing, complaint about exaggerated prices, etc.

By the way I can't stop playing it. It's not playing itself at all, it's quite a nice level of fight you have to endure, but it gives back in spades what you put in.

since you mention it.. ;) I do find the prices exaggerated. But everything else about it is very cool. In fact all the Tylers that have arrived on the forum I've been impressed by. I can even see myself owning one.

I was staying out of this, adhering to the Maxim "if you have nothing nice to say..."

In my opinion, it's a f**king overpriced abomination of a guitar.

Balance is restored.  :D

My Mongoose got a lot of headstock bashing (not literally, fortunately) .  Maybe because the guitar resembled a Tele, perhaps it's more acceptable on a Strat type?

Don't know what this one cost you, but I don't think the Mongoose was that expensive really.

That Mongoose was a steal!

My Tyler was a bit more than that, but still cheaper than TFs PRS private stock stuff ;)

It's one of the few guitars I've sold without making a big loss!  :lol:

I've seen a couple more Mongoose models for about the same price as mine, but they were plain black finishes with no binding or anything, nowhere near as nice.
