Q & A with the REAL Owner of the Controversial Hunterburst Guitar! - Page 2

Tuxedo Kaz · 05-04-2009, 08:51 AM

I wonder if that pickguard is new, added on by the current owner for whatever reason, it's very white compared to the rings and pokerchip. Looks different, but cool.

BCRGreg · 05-04-2009, 09:14 AM

It's funny how some of the principals have changed their tunes a few times.

Roman never did.

I believe Mark told me that it was added (for some silly reason) before he got it.

Aha! Unfortunately, BB, that's about as astute as my observations ever get. Most of the time it's "Yup, that's definitely a guitar, and not a set of drums."

I don't know Roman, but based on what I've seen him write, I'd say he shoots it about as straight as a man can.

I'm with ya--I can spot a drumset 3 out of 4 times easy!

+1. Honest and forthright on here, and the few brief occasions I've had to ask his pro opinion. But I bet under that tough badass exterior he's like a Hostess, nice, soft cream filling.

That depends on his expiration date.

***b-squared*** · 05-04-2009, 12:15 PM

Everyone knows that Twinkies do not have one...LOL.

Nor does Roman...

+1. Roman is the classiest guy on MLP.

Thanks for this thread.

That other thread was total nonsense... "When there are 200 votes we will reveal....

that this thread will continue as a hugely intertwined mess of facts that seem constantly at flux.

These are fantastic close-ups too, nice photography...

I rather shuffle thru your parts bins & check out the repairs your working on. Anyone who hasn't been to his store it rather kool that he has his work station at the back of the store . So he can do repairs & still watch over the floor.

Let's just say, I am the one and only

Really? I'm used to hearing all the half-down bit. That's cool. I prefer standard myself (my 58 RI is set up for it and my PRS for D Standard). So back to plain 11s in E?

GreaseBox · 05-05-2009, 08:25 AM

All of this is just so cool!

To everyone involved, thanks for such an interesting read!!!

Tux - could be back to half-step down with the current Slash n' Friends stuff, not sure. Krash would know
