Ain't that the truth!

The scooped cutaway on that Dean is imo just another gimmick to make the guitar appear better than the Ibanez and Conklin guitars he used to play.

i totally know what hes talking about on the horn, and i actually sanded my s7320 a bit just like that, i never knew his sig had that, its actually kick ass

That "lick" just shot and killed a bird on my window ledge.

Hey Rusty, I don't WANT to play that. I do think he makes some pretty good music though, but I would probably like it just as much even if he didn't do all of the over the top shredding. City of the Dead kicks my ass.

Oh, look at that. Just as much upper fret access, without having a retarded looking lower horn.

And a MUCH better guitar for the money!

It's not gimmick, it actually helps if you're a chest rocker, your hand rests behind there & if it's too thick, your hand hits the cutaway, I did the same mod to my RG7620 for the same reason.

You and me both.

This thread sucks. It looks to me like a bunch of sarcastic remarks and cheapshots at someone who will never visit this forum because of stuff like this. : / I'm not talking to anyone in particular here, I'm just tired of seeing people joking about Rusty's playing as if it's, well, a joke.

Rusty's a damn talented musician and from what I've heard an awesome guy too, so he deserves better than to be treated like a joke, even if you don't like what he does. His music has a place in a lot of peoples hearts... mine being one of them.

Anyway, I'm not one to bitch, but I've wanted to say that on quite a few occasions.

If you don't like the lower horn, you could always play a V
