Did anybody try them at music live? i don't think i did - i thought they looked too expensive and out of my price range. They are gorgeous guitars though - and i'd really like to know how they sound, since i've found that you can get a Neck-Thru, mahogany winged, maple/rosewood necked guitar, with tune-o-matic bridge, grover tuners, abalone inlays, and satin trans-amber finish for £119!!??!?!?!?!?! Ridiculous...

It would be well worth knowing how these things play -- GBP 120 for a through-neck?  Surely there's a catch!?  Though I hope there isn't .... :)

I'll take the through-neck bass and one of the acoustics at those prices, if they're any good!

That Apollo's a bit 'Stanley Jordan' isn't it?

Zebras rule, Sambo doesn't :wink:  Yeah the Korg idea is wearing off since the girl (34C.....Sambo you know what i'm talking about :twisted: ) that would be playing synth in my band just got the Korg, haha.

Dont worry mate, I'll also be there, rocking out on the Glitch pedal and guitar  :lol:

As to the guitars, an Apollo with zebra pickups would be awesome, the neck-thru "Natural" version is £300 though, but even with a set of BK's thats gotta be a good price, so long as it plays good!
