But.... If I don't hunch over the guitar, How am I suppose to see what I'm doing?

That is why I like bowl-backs, it is easier to tilt the guitar up to see what' going on!

But Really... Once I got a coupla contour-bowls they caused me to improve the way I hold all my guitars.

Adrian Legg told me he couldn't use full sized guitars anymore because of his back. I didn't tell him he should correct his technique.

The viper solid body is a great guitar to play lying on your back. You don't even have to be sick.
