Normally I like Warr Guitars, but...

How does one...

But the neck is so...

How heavy is...

WHY?

 

I don't grasp that gap in strings. Why have such a wide neck with so much empty real estate?

 

In before someone posts that tennesee 15 stringer

 

i respect people who play 4-9 strings on the bass, THAT though, is just a monstrosity

 

I agree, though. The SG-esque body doesn't work for me.

 

Yeah I really prefer the normal Warr shape.
The big gap between string sets helps with separation of the two sides. So basically you could use distortion on the guitar side with virtually no cross talk.
The RMC piezos are great, but you would need 2 Axon/Roland units to use it. Also if I recall that adds 2k to the price right there.
I love my 8 string and have seen this one come up several times, the right person might pay that much but I won't, also they have to realize that if you spend that much you want to decide on the woods and options yourself.

hahahahahahahaha

 

I didn't understand it either...then I went to http://www.warrguitars.com and watched a video of someone playing them...I get it now. I don't know if I like it, but I get it.

 

I think it looks kind of comfortable. Like instead of a designing it cope with the amount of strings they just stretched a bass out.

 

I suppose it's a tapping instrument (mostly) but not a dual (trad & two-hand tapping) one. I do two hand tapping and chordal stuff but I'd find it restricting that the bass strings could not be played the traditional way. I'll pass

 

That is just FUGLY!!! personally I still prefer the classic stick design to the Warr's attempt to look more like a guitar.

 

Warr Guitars are so awesome, in the right hands.

I think these types of instruments suffer the same re-sale issues that extended range basses have to deal with. It's really hard to re-sell something that is so unique.........But, it's a great find for someone that doesn't want to suffer through a lengthy build time.

I don't get it... I just don't get it.

This is completely bass ackwards to me. Its just like the split function on most keyboards you can play keys w/ your right hand and bass w/ your left.

This just complicates things.

I like the two hand tapping but let sound like a bass

 

I think normal Warr guitars are sexy. But goddamn son, what the hell?

And I'm toying with the idea of getting a "Krappy Guitars" TouchStyle made to try this new fangled prospect out.

 

Looks like road kill to me!
