I reckon the Graham Coxon signature tele would be the best Blur guitar. I couldn't really imagine him playing a blue super strat like in your picture.

Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

not sure why they would put all those frets on there..zero upper access to them
I was thinking something similar about violins, watching auckland philharmonia on Friday night. But the violinists didn't seem to struggle.
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

Yeah, had a cheeky thought to Willow's comment, "No access problem if you can actually play". :rofl: Have seen a visiting English Folkie playing entire instrumental tunes above the 12th fret on an ancient Martin 000-28.

I mean no frets, obviously, but with half of the fretboard after the neck joint....

kind of helps having it up by your chin there though, you can support the violin under your chin so that frees up the thumb some what (I play a little violin..very badly). Would you like to see guitarists having it the high?
