What the.....

Post by bvmjethead » Tue Feb 01, 2005 11:44 am

This guy makes some decent guitars but he's lost his mind.......

Look at the "Owners Manual" section as if the rest of the site is not enough.

What drew me to it is his "Shock and Awe" pictures section on the opening page. LOT'S of guitar porn.

Yeah a link would help........ :oops:

Eh, I never understand why people try drilling holes in guitars like that.

Check this guy's guitars out.

Theres supposedly some mojo about the increased surface area greatly improving sustain as opposed to just less weight. I dont know if I believe that or not but I definitely am not about to drill holes in my guitars or buy one of those. They look cool though. After years of trying to be original and buying cool looking guitars with all the cool gadgets and tuners and bridges etc... Ill pick up a LP or strat after not having played one in a while and say, damn... nothing can beat the tone of these original guitars. I started realizing that maybe a LP cant play as fast or easy as some of these guitars out today but I play better on them because I feel I sound better. These guitars look really cool though. Id try them but Im kind of sick from trying new guitars out only to be disappointed. Id rather stick with tried and true and live with the possibility that I may like something out there better.

1st guy: " I just bought one of those Zachary guitars!"

2nd guy: Yea?! how does it sound?

1st guy: I don't know, I'm afraid to touch for fear of screwing it up somehow.

2nd guy: How does it look?

1st guy: Don't know that either. I have not taken it out of the case.

2nd guy: Why not?

1st guy: I'm afraid if I look at it wrong that will screw it up too.


The guy obviously puts alot of time and effort into these guitars but if I played one like I do my own it would have pick scratchs and the like in no time. I'd be afraid to own one.

I hate the headstocks.

Tuning keys have to be turned in different directions on the same side of the headstock to tune the same direction. Look closely. He's forced to wind in opposite directions because the headstock is so narrow.

Beautiful woods though.

Yeah, I love the look of the woods.

The headstocks look way too narrow for my taste, I guess I'm just use to the LP headstocks.
