Panamark's Fav. Gear

[Eyes of the Night]

Elvis, it's set really about a 1/4 deep ... I think ...

If it's recessed then I'm fucked I guess ...

Thing is I have it floating now a whole step ... by raising 2 screws and loosening the springs ...

[Panamark]

I get a great tone from the destroyer, straight into a JCM800..
No pedals.. I knew that Ed had used a Destroyer on the early
albums, but not to the extent that you mentioned, ELVIS.

I hated the way he butchered that guitar !!!

The destroyer is such a solid body, neck through body,
that I could see any changes to the wood density would
impact the sound...

Yeah, it totally changes the imagination (correctly) of Edward recording the early material...

It's fun to pay attention to what he does in what song...

Edward was widely known for his dive bomb whammy technique, but when you listen closely, he hardly ever does it...

That's because with the Destroyer, he couldn't...

What do you want to do ??

Remove some wood so you can pull it way up ??

I think what you just described is how I set my American Strat trem to float...

They pivot on two screws as does a floyd, and I have the springs loose and the bridge slightly raised off the body...

I only do it this way because it's an easier way to keep a fender in tune...

Thats so cool !

He obviously didnt have the Kahler.. I can dive-bomb !

[ELVIS]

I'll bet that thing stays in tune good...

[ELVIS]

I know some people might laugh, but the similarities between an Ibanez destroyer and my Agile AX2 Ghost are many...

The binding on the neck and body, the fretboard, frets, and inlays are very similar...

Laugh all you want, but I have, on many occasions put my prized Stratocasters down in favor of the sound of the Agile...

Nice solid instrument...

[Panamark]

Yeah it never goes out.. On the rare occasions that it does, you just wang it again, and voila, back in tune !!

(I blame this on strings sticking somewhere, rather than a failing
of the trem system)

The fine tuners on the bridge/saddle are really cool too..
Very easy to work with...

Who cares what color the carpet is...as long as there are a plethora of panties on the floor tommorrow afternoon. Yeah, afternoon, I ain't seen th' morn in a while.

Panamark is too much of a gentleman to describe the panty
content on the floor

Needless to say, there is only one owner now....

[ELVIS]

That non-description is almost a description in itself...

You should be ashamed of yourself, young man!

[HAMBOY]

Tru, just seein if anyone was out there. Nice guitar. I have a Vintage Mahogany Gibson Les Paul and a Marshall MG 100HDFX, although I just started playing...funny huh?

Yes and no !

Hypothetical:

"If there was panties on the floor, they would belong to
just one person now"

Is that any better or am I just digging a hole ??

Cut me some slack ya bugga's Im in love !
There is only one lady for me now !!!

[HAMBOY]

It's all good, whatever floats ya boat.

Ya know what Dave said:

"Many people think that the end has come when one marries and gets kids - to me it would be a wonderful new beginning" DLR
