I used to be a stuck-up LP user. No whammy bar for my Les Paul but I do miss the whammy like on my strat. So as I get older I’m re-thinking my attitude and after seeing the Neal Schonn model I e-mailed Gibson and they told me about this model. The more I look at it the more I like it. With today’s economy it’s out of my league right now…but someday…

Both of my on-stage guitars have a Floyd Rose system, and one of them is a very high dollar custom built axe. I personally like the Floyd Rose. I can use a very light tremelo that sounds very fine or I can fram on it as much as I want and it never goes out of tune…unless of course I happen to shred a string right off the thing, and then, like a good pro should, I just grab the other one. It does what it is supposed to and allows me to keep right on playing from one song to the next without having to stop in between and re-tune. Wish I could say the same for somne other players.

It seems really nice except for the Floyd Rose, I really dislike those. A Bigsby or an Angus Young-like bridge would have been better options in my opinion.
