Ever played one? I don't like regular rounded necks anymore! Total trip. Just wish they'd been around 20 year s earlier.

I played a Steinberger (? I think) a long time ago. They've been around for at least that long. I'd have to pick one up again to remember how I felt about it.

This is Strandberg. Other than headless it's not like the Steiny. This is a nice intro to them. Felt strange for about 30 seconds.

I must have déjà vu cause I distinctly remember you saying that before, I could be wrong though. I remember you buying a very expensive Les Paul then ended up selling it.

What is the purpose of having two nearly identical guitars? If you are playing at a gig and you have the guitar with one knob do you have to tell the band to hold up cause the next song you're going to play you'll need to switch to the guitar with two knobs? Then they start without you anyways and you wish you had a single guitar that sound like both the one knob and two knob guitar.

Honestly you should do a guitar video shoot out between the one knob and two knob guitar. See how different they are sonically from each other.

Anything I said previous to 2019 is highly suspect. I was making terrible financial and gear decisions for a few years there.

The combination of the lightweight (5 lbs), cool body shape (is comfy to play standing, sitting, even lying down - I tried it), the multi-scale (it transitions from a Strat scale on the low E to Les Paul on the high E), and the crazy neck have all helped my playing more than I would have imagined.

And Neo, I can't believe you have to ask about the benefits of having two knobs over one. It's simple math silly. Two is bigger, better, and simply MORE than one.

Duh.

I understand the reason for the one knob, seem apparent it's paying homage to EVH. So having two knobs isn't always necessary. If you constantly gigging I can see the advantages of having two identical guitars - having one for back up in case you break a string. The question is which one do you leave on the guitar stand - the one knob or two knob guitar? If I have two identical guitars one would have to be in alternative tuning. eg one Telecaster in standard and the other in Open G tuning.

Simply really, they get alternated each day.
Only one comes out of the closet at a time.






Kinda like this place....
