I wont get into all the details but my guitar in the sticky thread has been on the market for a while (someone please buy it I will take any fair offer). I wish I could keep the SS but truth is I need to finish paying for the 25th. I have also always knew in my heart unless the guitar has an all RW neck I prefer maple...not to mention that I really need my ball that has a single coil in it to have a piezo (truth is I need all my balls to have piezo) So in the future there will be a Ball with a single in the neck with piezo in the vail house hold.
Back to the 25th. It feels so good (I had already played one before). As everyone else has said it is so loud unplugged it is not funny. The only problem (which has nothing to do with the guitar) is that my amp is bust and has been send to CA for repair and so I have nothing to plug it into and don't know when I will!!!!
BP I now feel like I really need to play a 20th just to see how some of this stuff started. You guys rock!
