bigneil Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Why ? look at the title of the thread!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiggy Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Why ? The title of the post implies something totally different, and somewhat less savoury, in English to American - to whit in English he appears to be infering that he is so enamoured of his guitar that he has become somewhat onanistic about it. In American I believe it refers to overindulgent 'shredding' when playing a guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milod Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 All kidding aside - and yeah, the terminology isn't terribly appropriate for younger children regardless of national origin - I haven't seen much nice about this particular guitar in terms of review. What I've read is that the build is pretty nice, but that the pups are muddy. Frankly since I have to get everything off the web due to distances, that made me make another choice for a semi - a nice standard Dot. ???? m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crust Posted February 18, 2011 Author Share Posted February 18, 2011 ^ hmm, interesting. I have never heard that particular ... word. I just use "wankidge" as an expression of beating on the guitar incessantly to make sounds. :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crust Posted February 18, 2011 Author Share Posted February 18, 2011 My friends call me a "wanker" when I start playing the guitar [smile] :P :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
animalfarm Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 It IS a gorgeous guitar! I'm so used to Les Pauls, that when I had the chance to play a Semi-hollow recently, "Mah Brane" had a real time making the transition. Wasn't as easy as I expected. On an informative note, from the wikipedia: Wank (mountain) - Wank (German pronunciation: [ˈvaŋk]) is a mountain in southern Germany. The summit can be reached via the eponymous Wankbahn, a cable car system. It is possible to both eat and sleep on the Wank at the Wank-Haus. Leisure activities on the Wank: It is possible for a fit person to reach it without major difficulty. Wank webcam? Yes, there is one, according to wikipedia. Who woulda known?

crust Posted February 18, 2011 Author Share Posted February 18, 2011 My oldest kid read this post. He said I was a "wanker" because I don't have a "real Gibson". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Upiory Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 Looking at a body like Crust's Riviera, I can easily see why he might be moved to the sin of onanism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
