25th Anniversary Surprise

[mb99zz]

One thing to remember about the 25th. It has a contoured body. So your arm is resting on a flatter surface, rather than on a sharp edge. I find it very comfortable as opposed to a Les Paul or Axis. Comparing it to either of those guitars is a bit unfair, anyway. It's a completely different animal. Even though it looks like an Axis, it's definitely not. Definitely has its own feel and its own mojo.

Just tried one today and will 2nd that. I had an ASS before and sold it because for me personally it wasn't comfortable to play. The 25th was much more comfortable than the ASS.

Yeah, the 25th is a real comfortable guitar to play. I had a lot of fun at NAMM playing with it.... I still have yet to see one a Guitar Center though.

The resonance of this guitar really took me by surprise. The conbination of series/parallel is more useful than I anticipated. From a really fat sound to a more open and bright sound at the flick of a switch. The bass is very balanced in the fat mode and doesn't get flabby. The brighter sound doesn't get ice pick in your ear either.

It rocks! You can get a controlled feedback at manageable volume ( I surmise that this is due to the chambering). It is light but has oomph! It has a bright attack w/o the bottom falling out. I could go on forever here.

Very well put!
