A roundhouse kick to the face is technically "male on male touching", but is not ghey at all!

Now if you were to drop to your knees afterwards and provide tender comfort to your downed opponent, well then that would be ghey!

Thanks for all of the responses so far! I told jemsite your main arguments, and
they say that "the holes drilled on the neck don't affect the stability too much because the neck is already very stable (5 piece). Fret access is much better on the JEM because of the all access neck joint. And the fact that the controls are front-loaded doesn't mean that it has less wood, the routing is the same size as rear-loaded guitars."
-------------------
Yep, the JEM7V is alder

It's not the front loaded thing, what with the hsh pickups, swimming pool sized floyd cavity (even larger with the Vai route that allows and I quote "extreme trem pull ups"), control cavity and stoopid monkey grip, there's hardly any wood left in the body at all. The Kelly has more mass, hence better tone IMHO.

That's also why I don't like floyds. That and the tuning difficulty Gimme a 1 pickup 1 volume string thru.

Oh and about the all access joint on Ibeenhads thing, the kelly is neck through. There is no joint. Nuff said.

On the other hand, I'm curious how a 5 piece neck is more stable than a scarf jointed neck (3 piece). Not being sarcastic, I'm just curious.

hi,

i've a jackson ke3 and a rg550 limited.i've also had chance to try usa jackson kelly many times and ibanez jem7v...

1-ke2 is heavier than jem
2-ibanez's bridge is lower than original floyd.but this never affects the playibility,they both don't go out of tune easily.
3-honestly ke2 has more sustain than jem
4-both of their access on 24th fret is easy (but it's very difficult for japan kellys)


jem7v is a very good instrument, but it it doesn't deverse it's price.because the workmanship on jackson is far beyond than jem...novadays many many web sites sell copycat rg's and jems that have same or better qualtiy than it's originals...
they can sell, beacuse it's very very easy to built a jem or rg...but crating a neck thru guitar is not as easy as that.it needs more and more workmanship...i said before i've a beautiful rg550...and i'm very very happy with it. and when you change the picups believe me it has no diffrences with a jem...you're giving more money for only a meaningless monkey grip,and vine inlay which will be boring some time later,and to mr.vai's signature(to earn him more money )
you can buy two used perfect japan rg's and modify them for your pleasure...that aslo would be cheaper...

i'm both jackson&ibanez user and if i were you, i would buy ke2

by kelly user's definition, other "non ghey" sports:

ping pong
8 ball (or snooker, billiards, etc)
10 pin bowling
lawn bowls
skeet shooting
darts
fencing
air hockey
golf
pole vault


These sports have all been declared safe for those who feel sufficiently insecure about their masculinity that the touch of another male may lead them to "bat for the other team". The lack of "male on male touching" should mean that your fragile hold on your heterosexuality remains intact, although no responsibility will be accepted if you are swayed by the sight of your opponent's package straining against the fabric of his polyester shorts, the tracks of sweat down the back of his duck-egg-blue polo shirt, or the glimpse of hairy knee that you catch above his long walk socks.

I don't know man...the implications of pole vaulting can be taken many ways.:ROTF:

Might wanna check with kelly user on that one.

vita, look up "donna, texas + redskins" in your search engine of choice. see what you find, that is why i leave football to gheys.

[VitaminG]

I didn't find anything googling "donna, texas + redskins". Is it some kind of Debbie Does Dallas thing? Doesn't sound too ghey to me
