When I think sharkfin I think like Jackson Rhoads style with the curve to it.
But different strokes for different folks, I'd rather trapezoids on a Bird

Mention "Jackson" and shark fin inlays are always the first thing I think of. They must have the copyright on that.

Although the more I stare at it the more I like the triangles (Ric Teeth) on a Bird. They need a bit more of a point on them though

It might just be the visual as a whole but if it were just a stock bird with teeth.......who knows?.

 

[TBird1958]

I think a `bird with shark teeth would look cool. Some pages back, I think there was a bastard bird that had shark teeth (and Ric pickups if memory serves).

Do Shark Fins count?

 

[ProgressiveDoom]

Oh yes of course.

There was always music in the house, starting from before our son was born. He was listening to Duke Ellington from the beginning. He had no way to avoid it! And, my wife loves to sing to herself when she does all kinds of things. She's off key, but she's singing. I wasn't playing much when he was little, but there was usually music from records or the radio. We would listen to music and read instead of watching TV. Sometimes being a little odd pays off.

My mum attempted to teach me the piano when I was quite young, something for which I showed less than zero interest or aptitude* and which was a severe disappointment to her. The parents were very surprised when I expressed a desire to learn the 'cello a couple of years later, but it's a matter of choosing the right instrument innit? My sister is an oboe player, aka 'duck strangler', although she learned the piano also. We were highly discouraged from contact with that Devil's music mind, it all being about 'nothing but drugs'.

*When I have no interest, I go out of my way to have no aptitude, just to hammer the point.

Just gives the sound more bite

@TBird1958 Bummed I missed the get together this weekend! I had all my stuff packed up and ready to go Saturday and then ended up spraining my ankle that night! The doc at the hospital said it was one of the worst looking sprains he'd ever seen, not that that made me feel much better about missing the party.

Sorry to hear it. We figured there was a good reason for your absence, not a painful one.
