    for all you axemen out there

    this is kinda off-topic, even for the water cooler, but has anyone here heard/played the Burns imitation Red Special? Does it sound authentic? I saw a picture of it last night and my mouth is still watering...

    Note: I found a comparison between the replica and the original on the Burns website. They sound EXACTLY the same.

    Anybody ever played an ESP KH-2? Thinking about putting some of the college fund toward that.

    I've played it once at Guitarcenter before they kicked me out for playing Bellz and boy did she perform!! The finest action I've ever done seen on a guitar. Way too expensive though. Thinking about Frankensteining one similar, but that would probably cost more. Okay, I actually got kicked out for the singing, not the guitar playing.
