merciful-evans Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 I know these have been mentioned here before, but for those who haven't seen a demo, this one from Jan 15 is not bad. He begins by saying that this is the 'clean' mode, though the actual clean sound is between 348 - 411 (bar a little reverb) It reminds me of one of these things http://www.screwfix.com/p/labgear-tv-aerial-high-gain-48-element/30515?kpid=30515&cm_mmc=Google-_-Product%20Listing%20Ads-_-Sales%20Tracking-_-sales%20tracking%20url&cm_mmc=Google-_-Shopping%20-%20Electrical%20and%20Lighting-_-Shopping%20-%20Electrical%20and%20Lighting&gclid=CL2exoj8zsoCFQo6Gwod68cGWA
btoth76 Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 Hello! Sounds nice, hard to debate that. But...what's the point of the minimalism, if it makes it difficult to play? Bence.
Mr. C.O. Jones Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 Right now I'm looking for a guitar that I can take to work. One of those undestructible things that I don't have to be scared to drop or bump agaist walls/persons or vehicles. This looked like a really good option, then I looked at the price..... $5750!!! I'll keep looking for a used and abused MIM Tele, no freakin way! Still a cool idea!

Good question, but you can de-minimalize it with that acrylic neck. And you are always the cool kid when your neck has blue leds!
kidblast Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 watched with piqued interest.. at the end of the day, I'll pass... guess it's true... I Like Wood...
btoth76 Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 Hello Marcos! http://www.gak.co.uk/en/steinberger-spirit-gt-pro-deluxe-white/53652 Cheers... Bence
JayinLA Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 Interesting. Not sure I like it or not. I take it the metal is not magnetic?
btoth76 Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 Interesting. Not sure I like it or not. I take it the metal is not magnetic? It's made of Titanium. It's paramagnetic. Cheers... Bence
Mr. C.O. Jones Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 Hello Marcos! http://www.gak.co.uk...uxe-white/53652 Cheers... Bence Yup almost, but no.... I'm looking for an excuse to get me a Tele, but pshhh.....don't tell nobody!
Dub-T-123 Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 Sounds like a combination of "glitter" and "Hitler"
btoth76 Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 Sounds like a combination of "glitter" and "Hitler" I can't help but think the same when I hear about this brand. And it's based in Israel... it must be tough to live with this name there. Bence.
Mr. C.O. Jones Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 Funny didn't think of Hitler! What comes to my mind is Gitter, lattice in german me thinks! Hope my dictionary got that one right.
btoth76 Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 Hello Marcos! The reason why it strikes me everytime, that I speak Russian. When Russians spell foreign names that start with letter "h", they pronounce it with "g" instead. That's how Hitler becomes Gitler in Russian. Bence.
capmaster Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 ... When Russians spell foreign names that start with letter "h", they pronounce it with "g" instead. ... Bence. This is interesting. I never heard of that before. Some people here come from Eastern Germany, and most of them were educated in Russian, but we didn't talk about that point until now.
btoth76 Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 Hello Capmaster! Yes. Just google for WWII Soviet propaganda posters. Also from wikipedia: "Адо́льф Ги́тлер (нем. Adolf Hitler [ˈaːdɔlf ˈhɪtlɐ]; 20 апреля 1889, деревня Рансхофен[1] (ныне — часть города Браунау-ам-Инн), Австро-Венгрия — 30 апреля 1945, Берлин, Германия)" Also, interesting how Spanish pronounce "j" and "x" as "h". But, I don't know anything about it's grammatical background. Cheers... Bence
btoth76 Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 Tone Alloys? Very interesting thanks ME. The one shown above is around 20+ years old design. Gittler also made a wooden guitar in the same minimalist approach. Bence.
