    only because it has no humbuckers. Trust me, I played one with duncan 59's in it through a new Vox AC30CC one night helping a guy who bought WAY TOO MUCH amp get useable tones out of it. Redonkulous feeling guitar. loved it. It kind of makes me want to get maybe a carvin SC90 or double cut.

    Illy. I kind of prefer the Bob marley model, man that is a good feeling sounding guitar.

    i'm left handed 99% of the time. writing, throwing, eating, etc., but i am completely right handed when it comes to playing guitar. is that rare?

    i don't know. a lot of left handed people end up playing right because it's more comfortable or because only right handed instruments were around. i tend to think they're more ambidexterous than i am though.

    i'd swing a bat/golf club/hockey stick in what would be considered right handed fashion though. no way could i switch hit.

    same with guitar, there's no way i could play a right handed instrument. even when i first started. it just doesn't fit.

    i've tried to play lefty, or at least tried to put my right hand into chord shapes. not happening at all. i also play drums righthanded. weirdness.

    i play golf, baseball and basketball lefthanded.

    that faded double cut with the p-90's is cool as shit. how do they sound? aren't they around $650?

    never played one. never found one left-handed in person. but i know i love p90s.

    i think right-handed they can be had pretty cheap.

    some guy from either chicago or somewhere in michigan (i can't remember) bought it back in jan 04. as far as i know he loved it. i haven't seen it reappear.

    it was a great guitar but i made mistakes with the neck profile and control configuration. well, not mistakes but just didn't like the choices i made.

    in a do-over, it would have been the same body with a two pickup, 4 knob gibson style configuration with duncan stacked P90s. and gibson type bridge.

    rather than the 3 pickup, strat type config with tremolo.

    but the body was a warmoth in stock special. it would have cost me maybe 50% to build the guitar with a special ordered body.
