Goddamn rare they are.

Got a new group to add to that list:
1200 Micrograms. More psytrance techno.

Acoustic is very nice. Especially if you get the ability to switch between magnetic pickups & an internal mic.

Those are the qualifications for my 7-string purchase that are making it extremely difficult to find. I'll also want a hardshell case for festival hopping.

I may have to order a custom guitar for a grand or two...
I want to say dammit, but it would be sweet to design my own guitar...

That's probably what the thing would cost to have made as a non-standardized design...
I won't have the money for a LONG time...

damn... I could buy a car... damn...

Oh god I want a superbike so bad... 130mph without any effort... damn.

I'd get the guitar first though...

Damn it! There don't seem to be any musicians in here.
