    But oh, those Wolfgang necks...and the cheap OLP's of mine, too.

    Less than a third of my collection has six tuners in-line.

      I own both and I would agree with this. The amps are special, especially the clean channel.

      I like my Wolfgang Special Stealth (ebony board). It is a great guitar to play, just looks fugly

        The headstock on my Fireman is almost twice as big as the Wolfgang's

          Definitely/oddly on the small side. Hard to even clip a tuner on it. 10% bigger would have been spot on. Same for body.

            Apart from the looks it makes putting strings on a bit more fiddly.

            I can't think of any advantage apart from looking distinctive. Maybe it harks back to his Steinberger days.

            If a guitar is meant to be phallic then that makes these kind of lacking something...

              Santa Clause brought me a 5150 with EL-34's in it. Built like a tank and sounds great. Actually don't use the high gain channel much. More clean and crunch for me.

                That was me. I started playing on guitars with three tuners on each side and then in high school I got a Strat. All the tuners were on one side and I loved it. So easy. Bought a Wolfgang and yeah the necks are nice but they are such an ugly chunk of wood. Ended up getting rid of it.

                  So Eddie outsources the production of his crap? Not surprising. Here's a look at a typical beach in Indonesia.


                  Wonder how much of that is waste from production of his shitty guitars.

                    Typical beach at most Shit-hole countries. And there's a lot of them.

                      Where "Shit-hole" guitars are made so "shit-hole" losers like you can buy them at a "shit-hole" inflated price.
