But that volume/gain knob...is in the WORST position on the body.

I get to flailing away, and -whoop!- brushed my pinky against that knob, and the tone is gone...or there's no sound altogether.

That being said, Strats rule, (the bridges do suck, though - my Tele has a six-saddle through-body) especially for live work, because they take so much abuse.

Schecters...meh.

They're like PRS to me - way overhyped and pretty generic, at the end of the day. I mean, they LOOK cool, and they're pretty, and they play nice...but they don't have a very "edgy" sound. They're like cookie cutter guitars to me. No personality.
