pippy Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 That Is Very Cool! My daughter would LOVE that...lol! How does it play? I see it even has a compensated bridge! P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buxom Posted January 8, 2013 Author Share Posted January 8, 2013 The tuning is rough, due to the **** tuners it has, but I'm changing those for Klusons eventually. It does play really nice once it's properly tuned, however. I'm also thinking of putting a new pickup. Ideas welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riffster Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Nice, I just bought a V myself but will not get it until next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buxom Posted January 8, 2013 Author Share Posted January 8, 2013 I'm thinking of so many V card jokes, it's not even funny. (and probably isn't anyways, I wish I was 13 again) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dem00n Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Its not the tuners, its the string gauge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buxom Posted January 8, 2013 Author Share Posted January 8, 2013 I think they're at 9s. Also, the tuners honestly suck, they're the basic hex-back semi-sealed ones a lot of Asian made guitars come with. They're not smooth, and they wiggle a lot. Klusons are in the near future Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Izzy Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 If my V had a comfortable strap I may take her otu once in a while. I like the color of yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazytrain513 Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Throw in some Klusons and a 500T and that thing screams "Panama" =] If you really wanted to go crazy you could tape it up and do some Frankenstrat painting. THAT would be raw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buxom Posted January 9, 2013 Author Share Posted January 9, 2013 How much did you pay for that?? also, is the paint job like that on the neck. (I've never actually looked at one of ZW's necks) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dem00n Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 I think like $180 new. I bought it as a travel guitar. It even came with a mini Marshall half stack, which sounds...decent. I don't put it in standard tuning, i mess around with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buxom Posted January 9, 2013 Author Share Posted January 9, 2013 Mine doesn't take standard tuning. I have to put the fat E slightly out of tune for it to sound proper when played with basic powerchords, which is ok with me. It still sounds great. Also, I should put some kind of nasty pickup, I'm thinking dirty fingers. And I need a drummer over, ASAP. I want to run this thing through my halfstack, just because it would be hilarious. Also, your knob is a bit lower than mine, which seems like it'd be better. I always knock down the volume when muting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll make that little mother****er sound like a chainsaw! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buxom Posted January 9, 2013 Author Share Posted January 9, 2013 Which reminds me... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=im74bBeOT74 Been on my "Wanted" list for about 2 years. And, honestly, I'll have to go to my local music store and browse. They have a cabinet full of both new and used pickups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also think that riff is the perfect Super Distortion riff. It screams chainsaw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buxom Posted January 10, 2013 Author Share Posted January 10, 2013 I think having any amp with gold distortion is key. My little Peavey kicks some serious ***. But damn, that's some good stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
