If you want to call it playing! :ROTF: I just threw that together to show off the guitar.

That's cool. I know it's a lot harder to play when you are moving around like that, but I just wanted to mention that when you started playing your solo licks, it sounds like you're playing in the wrong key. So it sounds a bit off only because of that reason. Keep rockin' man.

Ah, tuning's off, intonation's off. Just got the guitar Friday and haven't set it up yet. Threw the song on and went with it. Haven't even played that song in years. Just havin' some fun.

Nice! I just checked out a bunch of these at Manny's in NYC this morning. I've got my sights set on the black SD1 - I just have to move my Fusion to get it (wife has capped my # of guitars, so somethings got to go).

Cool man!

Picked up a black SD1 from Manny's last night (relax - pics tonight).

Had to do some minor setup on it - out of the box everything was buzzing, so I had asked them to do a setup - I think all they did was raise the bridge. Long story short, I had to adjust the springs to get the thing playable in tune - after that, it was all butter, baby.

Quick review - oh, man, this thing is sweet sweet sweet. This is my first USA Charvel (I'm out of the Import board, baby!) and I must say I am not disappointed. I don't know why they didn't bring these "production" models out sooner.

More detailed review to come later.
