I'm one of those guys who think he's the ultimate Megadeth fan (Mega-fan, Mega-sheep, fanboy you can call it what you like np with me) and I felt like starting a thread about Dave's new guitar. Didn't want to do it on the Megadeth board since I think people here will react much better
First of all today was really an exciting day for me. I liked how much people were interested in Dave's new guitar, everybody was speaking about it! Just hours after it was announced all of my friends were asking me what I think about it, I remember people found about Dave going to Esp months later!... Today made me feel that Megadeth & Dave Mustaine are really "huge" and important. The RR24 we were waiting for years is released but check the namm section, although %99 of the people here didn't like (even hated) Dave's new guitar it was spoken a lot more than the RR24...
With all these hassle going on I think people are overreacting a bit about the guitar and let me tell you why I think they are;
1-) Suppose Dave was back to Jackson; Look at the body and think about it as a new version of Kv-1. Not with kahler but string-thru. I don't think anybody would complain about it! (maybe some would think it would be better with a kahler) Furthermore I think people would think Dave did a great job revising it, so the body isn't the problem...
2-) Suppose the dots weren't there, don't think people would hate this new version of the sharkfins. The Dv-8 also had a "goofball" on the fretboard. So the new fretboard can't be that bad.. (I know the dots suck anyway )
3-) I honestly don't know of any other brand which has a headstock that I think would go really well with a KV. Most of the people didn't like the Dv-8 headstock either. So that can't be such a big deal either. Moreover, imo it's the best Dean headstock except the headstock of that chick's Dean
So overall I think the Vmnt isn't that bad, but people just need to get used to it
Did I like it?
Yes, because I like seeing Dave putting something new. %99.99 of the people wouldn't even have the balls to put those dots along with the sharks there and that's what I like about Dave I wouldn't give a shit if it was a new ordinary Dean model But like I said above I felt that this is something good for Dave and Megadeth and that made me happy
These are just my humble opinions though. Maybe they don't make any sense for you at all, I can understand that
Now I just want to see Dave playing the f.cker!! Live in Turkey if possible
