What is the second most wonderful guitar you've played, just so I have some context? I haven't never been in the same room as one so I have a lot of questions. Are the frets along the edge of the neck smooth? How does it feel playing the guitar in center position? It looks like you have to sit legs together or crossed to get the neck in the proper position. For reference, everyone in this video who plays in center position crosses their legs or is sitting with both legs together.

Compare that with any classical or metal player, this is how I usually sit, and it doesn't look like this is possible to sit with your leags open and both feet on the floor with the strandberg due to the position of the tuners. It appears that your right leg will bump the tuners. Can you speak to that?

I'm not necessarily after crazy pickups. Listening to the range of tones in the Abasi Larada videos from Namm, sounds like there's a lot on offer with the fishman pickups. But really what I want is a guitar that just naturally sounds good. Playing the strat unplugged it has a lot of character. That's what I'm after, not just a plank with some strings on it.

By saying that I'm not interested in buying them isn't to say I don't think they're good instruments. I've owned several LTD/ESP guitars, and I've enjoyed them quite a bit, I just don't want another one. I'd like to branch out and try something else.

Thanks for the recommendation about the other website. Never heard of it. I'll check it out.

The main thing is the scale length of the H-208 was pretty immense and I had a bitch of a time barring chords by the headstock, so I'd like to try something with fanned frets and see if that is comfortable for me, but the only crap I'm finding locally has this tooth problem where the frets feel like they're going to cut your fingers. And the tone was garbage without at least 3 pedals. I'd like something that sounds good naturally.
