GuitarWolf Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 Oh man does that Freeway look sweet and the LG's not too bad lookin either! These things might actually give me my first case of GAS! YtseJam your Majesty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fantasticsound Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 No offense, but those are two fugly instruments! The whole black on black thing just doesn't do it for me on these Godins.

fantasticsound Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 Funny you should mention that. I've seen plenty of Goth kids around here. There are venues almost dedicated to them, often all ages clubs. Plus, a certain guitar manufacturer based here had several goth versions of their more popular instruments 5 or 6 years ago. Of course, they were actually manufactured in Memphis, not Nashville. It's easiest to find me on Facebook.

Hardtail Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 There is a black guitar I want to get one of these days. It's this one: http://www.gibson.com/Files/images/lps-eb.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fantasticsound Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 That's not goth, though. It's a nice black guitar. It's easiest to find me on Facebook. Neil Bergman Soundclick fntstcsnd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bejeeber Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 That EMB has a nice shape'n stuff. I had a black on black guitar in the late 80's - I'm not really into that look any more, but I wouldn't characterize it as ugly. Kind of the equivalent of a devil's food chocolate donut with chocolate icing, but not as bad for you.

Guitarzan Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 interesting, i wouldn't call them goth. more of a heavy rock utilitarian look. at least they didn't put bats on the neck. i was hoping they would have done what i suggested, a dual seymour duncan loaded floyd rose LG with a maple neck. http://www.soundclick.com/bands/pagemusic.cfm?bandID=193274 rock it, i will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kramer Ferrington III. Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 I dislike that black on black thing too. I find it a bit childish, I guess ("I'm SUCH a badasss, maaan. Lookit my black guitar!") Yeah, right. And anyway, IMHO it looks depressing and makes me want to use a dustcloth on the guitar to try to get the coal dust off.

MadStrum Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 I think the LG Signature is really sweet looking. I would have gassed for one too if it wasn't so heavy. The godin guys told me it's 12pounds. ouch Pier.

Guitarzan Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 i wonder, i really doulbt the Lg signature is 12 lbs. probably more like 8 to 9 lbs. did they include the case? honest, i think they probably did. http://www.soundclick.com/bands/pagemusic.cfm?bandID=193274 rock it, i will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhino Madness Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 I personally like the look of the EMB LG in black on black. And this is coming from someone with a white Strat with a maple neck . If I decided to go with a metal guitar with active pickups, I'm sure it would be a serious contender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well who knows, maybe in a few years you'l see Metallica and Alice Cooper playing the Grand ol' Opry (probably your worst nightmare, right?) Actually, that would be cool but it will never happen. The GOO is an honest-to-goodness theater with built-in seating. Add to that most of the year the weekends are 20-some acts on Friday and Saturday night. They would never book a band in the space that would require the mass cleanup of a Metallica or Alice Cooper. (AC would be cool to see there, though. ) Maybe Bruce Springsteen or Sting. But now that you mention it, the Ryman Auditorium, which is historically known as the home of the GOO (Even though the current home has served longer.) has hosted some great rock. Jeff Beck played there last year, and Wilco is there a week from Friday. Oasis on the 26th and, (god save us) R. Kelly is playing the Ryman on the 31st. Even Nashville's Country Institutions aren't just country anymore. It's easiest to find me on Facebook. Neil Bergman Soundclick fntstcsnd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
