Vigier Guitars

<t>Yesterday I got my second Vigier, an Excalibur Indus.I also have an Excalibur Surfreter Supra, which is part of the reason why I wanted a six string Vigier.Normally, I don&apos;t really like black guitars; I prefer bright, screaming if you will, colors (like neon yellow and orange). The textured ...

Yup, It&apos;s very nice.The dog is more into old jazz, so he doesn&apos;t use it much...

<r>I thought I&apos;d make a thread celebrating the arrival of my brand new Excalibur Surfreter.I bought it from a store in Italy called "The Shred Factory" (also a member of this forum), who were incredibly helpful, friendly and fast (they even included a few Italy-themed gifts with the guitar <E ...

Hmmm...Would one of these happen to be the Salisbury one?

Well, it&apos;s not really MySpace, but it&apos;s the ultimate-guitar.com equivalent:http://profile.ultimate-guitar.com/Bonsaischaap/It basically has some song ideas, riffs and technique samples.

That&apos;s a shame...Although it&apos;s a good thing it was sold of course.

I have a thing for light strings.I mostly use D&apos;addario &apos;9s, but have guitars with Fender, Martin, DR and Ernie ball strings as well; I guess I have a hard time making up my mind when it comes which brand is best.

z.guitarfreak wrote:And it looks stunning

Agreed.In fact, I find flamed is even better looking than quilted, although that&apos;s all personal preference of course.

Very nice playing and great intonation.

<t><br/> I would say the most important qualities a musician should be:-timing; not the first thing that may come to mind, but very important nonetheless.-conviction; if you don&apos;t believe in what you play or if you don&apos;t mean it, just don&apos;t play.-the technical ability to create the ...

<t>I&apos;ve been looking far and wide for a fretless Vigier, but they seem impossible to find (meaning that the people who buy them must like them a lot, because no one seems to sell them).Anyway, a local store her in The Netherlands has one comming in a few months, but if anyone is selling their ...

<r> <QUOTE author="Ben"><s>[quote="Ben"]</s>Hey Trev, I will have my Surfreter and Ultra Blues with me as for the a Shawn Lane model, Ben will no doubt answer that for you.

I love these soundbites, as they give an idea of what the models actually sound like. I guess my favourites would be the ones on the Surfreter pages, but there some really nice &apos;fretted&apos; samples as well.

<r><QUOTE author="z.guitarfreak"><s>[quote="z.guitarfreak"]</s>What about a double neck with each neck having 3 strings?The neck having the 1st to 3rd strings is dedicated mostly to lead playing, thus it has the 13rd to 24th frets and a Floyd Rose trem, while the other neck having the 3 heavy ...

Very nice.Bumblefoot is an amazing player, but unfortunately not that many people know of him, so any exposure is great.

Isn&apos;t the whole point of hosting the games that you have a unique opportunity to present your country?They&apos;re a team of pilots performing some impressive manouvres and that&apos;s it. I really don&apos;t see why they should be banned...
