Re: Sweet sigs!
Speaking of sweet sigs, here's a question that has struck me before. If there's a particularly nice bit of signature kit, would you buy it even if you dislike the namesake? I guess "dislike" covers a spectrum. Feel free to elaborate on that and other relevant points.

Re: Sweet sigs!
I have a Sammy Hagar (?!) Washburn which was actually my main go to for a few years. Acoustic bridge on a solid body and a mini humbucker. Definitely didn't go looking for that one because of the endorsement!
They keep telling me tone is in the fingers, but I have yet to see a "look at my fingers" thread.

that is actually a really really good question.codedog wrote:Speaking of sweet sigs, here's a question that has struck me before.

I was going to say Eddie Van Halen, but I like Eddie but I don't really like Van Halen (just never got into the songs). I would guess I have only really heard about 20% of the output Eddie has done but there is nothing about his playing that I don't like so I should rule him out...would own any of his sigs in a heart beat (well apart from the red Frankie...never liked it)
Was then going to say Schenker, but again nothing about his playing I don't like but just never liked any of the bands he's been in ..so he's out
so yeah great question

I'm fickle enough that if there was a really nice guitar which was the sig of someone who I didn't like, then no, would not buycodedog wrote:Speaking of sweet sigs, here's a question that has struck me before.

Re: Sweet sigs!
The price was bordering on laughable.
The guitar was utterly, utterly beautiful in every way.
The price though.....
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.

Re: Sweet sigs!
Ditto. I'd assume that speaks for most people. Unless you simply didn't know it was a sig model in the first place, but that's not applicable to guitar-forum-nuts.jeremyb wrote:I'm fickle enough that if there was a really nice guitar which was the sig of someone who I didn't like, then no, would not buycodedog wrote:Speaking of sweet sigs, here's a question that has struck me before.

Follow up question: if you had a signature guitar of someone you really liked, but then they made a shit record (or did something vile) would you then wish to be rid of the guitar (regardless of how good it is)?
