Mate, I don't like'em one bit I have a friend who owns 3 or 4 and I played on them quite a bit. Dunno, they feel pretty artificial to me..

I believe Darius played a headless Hufscmidt in one of his latest lessons...

Headless fans coming out of the woodwork! Thanks for the pics and posts guys!! As for the BCRICH GUNSLINGER, I FREAKING WANT ONE!!! I've been on the lookout for one for a while. Have yet to find that killer deal though. Gotta have the reverse headstock version and hopefully one from the wayback machine in the 80's that's survived the years of torture. Then again, I"d take a new one too if I can find the right deal
The STRANDBERG series are sort of carrying the torch for the HEADLESS idea these days and doing a fine job They are a tad small though so on a big fella like me they look like a childs guitar almost, but hey thems the breaks I'd still like to play one SENSIBLE JONES has had quite the collection!! Nice axes man!! Here is a vendor I ran across recently, the make some spiff headless and headed guitars This one is almost a LES PAUL STRANDBERG http://www.skervesen.eu |

Yes, I have heard that the composite necks made a difference. I suppose that would be two separate things to dislike about those guitars or at least the old school Steinbergers, one if you liked it not having a head stock and secondly the composite neck. Now that I think of it, I'm wondering how I'd like the composite??? Sensibile, if you happen to see this, what was your take on the composite neck? Could you tell any difference in feel and/or tonal quality? Thanks sir...

Thanks Cos, I was aware of the TransTrem, but never seen a real one. Seems like a cool concept, I'd certainly be interested in trying one out.... but you know me, if it's a tremolo or (Whammy Bar).... I'm there!

Viceversa for me I tend to run away from them because of the lack of detuning possibility and bending issues when having to work with multiple strings
