Reverend BC-1
The LAST thing I need is another guitar, but I quite like the look of the Billy Corgan Signature...anyone seen one here yet? RS have them POA which probably means none have been ordered through so far?

Don't mind the shape, it's quite cool. I'm not that keen on the superfluous plastic plates.
They keep telling me tone is in the fingers, but I have yet to see a "look at my fingers" thread.

Unless you like visible chambers - the plastic plates are essential! (and not plastic, I believe brushed aluminium?)Delayman wrote:Don't mind the shape, it's quite cool. I'm not that keen on the superfluous plastic plates.
I'd rock one of these.

Re: Reverend BC-1
Yep brushed aluminium. And I quite like it personally. Not sure which of the limited colours really jumps out, but like the sounds the Railhammers seem to get (and Rev necks are always a winner).
Don't need it at all, but if one swims by at a great price...

Weird choice for a signature guitar, he's not dreadfully relevant these days....

Aha - I didn't realise they had a chamber underneath. And aluminium would look better. I thought it was white plastic in the photos.HackSaw wrote:Unless you like visible chambers - the plastic plates are essential!

That could be a generalisation for many guitarist's sig models depending on personal taste though couldn't it?jeremyb wrote:Weird choice for a signature guitar, he's not dreadfully relevant these days....

Re: Reverend BC-1
Signature models are probably not top of mind when you're flat out filling stadiums and smashing the charts. Probably more of an extra revenue stream or dream-come-true kind of thing to start thinking about a guitar with your name on it.SimonHirst wrote:That could be a generalisation for many guitarist's sig models depending on personal taste though couldn't it?jeremyb wrote:Weird choice for a signature guitar, he's not dreadfully relevant these days....
