25.5" scale is for pussies. 30" scale Soloist inside

Too busy to copy all the stuff here, so here's the link. The latest TMZ abomination.

If I wanted a baritone guitar I'd buy one.

I'd rather play that than a 7 or 8 string to be honest.

I'm guessing this is tuned like an original Bass VI? Which from the factory was E to E, down an octave from a normal guitar. Which is real close to the lowest 6 strings on an 8 string tuned down a whole step.

I guess this might be nice for somebody who:

-wants to play bass on a shorter scale.
-wants to tune down REALLY low.
-wants to tune to baritone tuning (or thereabouts) while having a lot of extra tension from the long scale

Cool. I was thinking it would be tuned B to B like on the DK27 they used to make, but since it's even longer, it might be closer to an 8-string.

It looks good anyways....I'm not sure how practical it is....I love the guitar....

Could Yngwie toss that around his body?

Or at least the body he had before he began shopping for leather pants in the 'husky' department?

Looks OK to me and nice to see somebody at Jackson trying new things.
Is it for me? Nope not interested doom has pretty much run its course IMO.

Oh and its pretty childish to talk about somebody's weight.

[Larz]

Being overweight in general is a serious long term health problem, I'm not afraid to talk about it openly and seriously with people I know personally.

If something like perpetuating a long standing joke about Yngwie is childish in your eyes, okay, I'm guilty of being young at heart.

Happy Holidays.

The longer scale makes it look like a little kids guitar

I don't see any potential benefit from a $3k+ price tag with a 30" scale length, and missing a Floyd. Give me a regular SL2H and I'll drop tune it with thicker strings, or use a pitch manipulation tool such as a Morpheus Drop Tune.

I don't see a purpose for a 30" scale length using bass strings... Someone must have been bored and thought this idea up.
