Hi Bernie,

Its been 3 days since the Japan show and months since the blog post about posting rehearsal footage or the like. Not knowing how busy you guys might be, i may sound like a prick but is there a footage of the live show for us to see?

@aviparanoid. Check out the video I just uploaded today.

dear Bernie..am afraid i keep botherin u..but wud like to kno if d NEW 24fret vortex that ur other guitarist bought is neck heavy??..really wanna buy it..or else wud go fo a fernandes revolver..i really find neckheaviness annoying!..pleas reply.

[BernieVersailles555]

All V's are neck heavy. It's really not the neck that's heavy, it's the body that's light. If that's an issue for you, then a V isn't for you. You should be 100% comfortable with your axe, so get a Revolver. They're awesome.

great riffs man..fukin awesome!..been thinkin of buyin a fernandes vortex elite..but now i kno its neckheavy..thats y u hold it between ur thighs..am i right?? please reply.

[BernieVersailles555]

Thanks Paul. Every Flying V I've ever played has been neck heavy. That's just how V's are, since you're forced to lock on the strap where the neck meets the body. I do the "Michael Schenker stance" mostly when I'm soloing in the higher frets, but during the rhythms, the guitar hangs pretty nicely.

Cheers Bernie!

cant stop playing it at work! Thanks a ton!!

sheer awesomeness

[Morgorroth]

sorry but I had an Ibanez V once that was not neck heavey (but sounded pretty shitty with stock pickups and had a lacquered neck, which I don't like).

Otherwise maybe consider custom built V.

Cheers

Slovenia awaits you!!!!
