Location: Burbank | Well I was able to get my hands on my first long neck. It has such a great sound. Just trying to get used to it. Then I look forward to using its flexibility with new tunings. Should be a fun adventure. Putting a little more pressure on those bass strings takes some getting used to as well, but that's all part of the fun right? |

Location: Burbank | Thanks guys. I'll take some pics soon. EJ18 is what she came with. I just noticed that when I use the amount of pressure I am used to I get a little rattle like fretting out. I have the same thing happen when I play around with my bass so I know its just getting used to heavier strings. |

Location: near Cologne/Germany | I use Adamas 1818 when tuned to D, and that's fine for me. Used to use EJ18s and Adamas 1919, but those 1818 make things a little bit easier.... I have one tuned to C, with 1919. I also run one of my Longnecks with 1717 Adamas, tuned to Eb....
