In my bedroom?
Sure

I'd just be afraid my studded codpiece would scratch the back.

 

[Gorgon90]

I like that. How do you change between pickups though?

 

[Packerbacker]

No. Snakeskin anything not for me

 

[Tiltsta]

Nah, I couldn't play a snakeskin finished guitar.

I like that. How do you change between pickups though?

there is one volume knob and one three-way switch

 

[Saturn]

Without the snake skin finish I love that guitar. Even with the snake skin I would totally rock that thing (in a big hair and spandex kind of way).

I can see that now looking at the pic again. I read the specs that said 1 Volume, 1 Tone and thought the switch was the tone control. So basically it's a San Dimas in a snakeskin finish?

Admittedly I lusted after the original snakeskin guitar, but preferred the added neck pup on George Lynch's Kamikaze. I still think it's a great pickup combo, but I'm not into graphic finishes and or Floyd's. I'm not particularly enamored of the dinky super-Strat body either.

The old Caparison Horus (and I believe the Jackson Falcon that the Horus was based on) only had a volume knob, and you changed between pickups by pushing down on the volume knob. I don't think you could select both pickups, it was just the neck or the bridge only.

But yeah, I'd rock this Charvel

It wouldn't be my pick for a finish, but if it played really well, I'd hit it

 

[jelloman]

Nah...I have a lot of respect for Warren as a player, but I look really bad in Spandex...

 

[Muppet]

Totally would. Long, hard, deep, and often.

 

[Coralkong]

I would rock the SHIT out of that thing.

So hot it might catch on fire.

One of the favorite songs and videos of a misspent youth.

The only things I like about it anymore are the riff and the solo. Well, the eye candy still looks decent, despite the fashion.

I think Stephen Pearcy is as pretty as that chick is. His make up is better for sure.

 

[VoidTerraFirma]

I'll take that midnight subway train.

 

[Guitar Heel]

No, I would not.

 

[Denverdave]

Not my thing....

 

[micwalt]

That guitar is way cool, junior.
