If you could only live with one J/C guitar style..
Re: If you could only live with one J/C guitar sty
I think a strat is most comfortable sitting down. I dont like the way it feels standing up, I feel like it needs to be to high up on my chest to play it right (all vernon reid style) I think the Kelly is the Shit.. and The KV is too but I think the kelly is cooler
Re: If you could only live with one J/C guitar sty
i guess it's just my body shape or something...the top horn digs into my rib cage and i have to strap them up high to have a comfortable playing angle or whatever. i spent most of my time learning guitar sitting on my bed(w/strat bodies) so that probably has a lot to do with it. every pointy guitar i own, especially my Death Angel and WRMG is much more comfortable standing and trying to rock out a bit. they just fit me. and imo they look very cool! i just snagged a KV2 off the bay also. i'm 99% positive i've got 2 strat body guitars for sale!

Re: If you could only live with one J/C guitar sty
The most comfortable guitar to play sitting down, is the Rhoads, period. I can sit back in my chair, very comfortable, with the guitar in a classical position and just play. The strat shapes don't come near it.
For standing up, I like guitars that are a bit back heavy, like an LP or an old Flying V. The strats don't want to hang right, and nor does the Rhoads.
I'm sick of going into a guitar store and seing strats with white pickguards left and right. Bleh! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
Re: If you could only live with one J/C guitar sty
They are very comfortable in the classical position, but i sit "classical" with strat shapes as well, and i find them equally comfortable, both while standing and sitting.
But for some reason i just don´t care for the look of v´s anymore, so strat/soloist/dinky for me.
Re: If you could only live with one J/C guitar sty
Ya know, as a dealer, I handle hundreds of guitars.
And tho Im not the biggest WR1 Usa fan, Its by far my favorite and most comfortable axe.
So Im gonna actually step out on a limb and say a Usa WR1 with an oiled neck...
2nd place or equally tied up there with the Warrior is an SL2H.
