Default A 21st Century Guitar Masterpiece

Music Man Artisan Majesty 7 String

Been playing 42 years and have owned probably a hundred guitars. About 10 years ago had plenty of disposable income and tried all of the boutique builders. This baby is hands down the most ergonomic and versatile guitar I've ever owned. Will be selling off a treasure trove of high end classics (to help with finances) and with all honesty will not miss them one bit. I've forced myself to play them the past couple of months and always end up putting them away and grabbing this.

Mahogany neck thru design with mahogany wings, a maple cap laser etched to look like carbon fiber, ebony fret-board, and 24 SS frets. Faster than the Mach 5.

I'll check that dictionary, but in the meantime I'm impressed - as is everyone else in the world - by your eloquence, obvious accomplishments and success, and the evidence of your blazingly high intelligence.

Sure. Just use a metronome this time. Last time your riffing was great but your timing was..... well....... "off".

Lol right. I feel like it adds a bit of humanity to it, I've never really played with a metronome and I don't have any reason to, but I understand why people would have a problem with it. Guess I'm more inclined for playing punk and experimental **** anyways.

Yes and no. (Speaking from Chula's perspective, not my own offbeat loving ass's) there's loose drumming and off drumming. Or you could pretend that you're alternating from 4/4 to 17/8.

I get that, but it made it really hard for me to settle into any solid grooves.

I'll just try to play more on time I guess but it is kind of tough not playing along any other instruments.
