Only for ease of string changing. No winding the string around the post and it automatically clips off the excess string. I'm lazy :-) If you ever do get a custom one built, save the specs from your peavy and have the custom built to those specs. My fingerboard is being made to the exact same scale, radius, and width specs as my ESP cuz that baby fits me like no other __ My mighty steed

Thats a nice guitar for sure, but the 4 -5 grand you will spend on it can get you one custom built. You could have one built to exactly the same specs, produce the same tone and feel, but be a far higher quality and be truely a "custom" guitar. __ My mighty steed

I owned a Paul Reed Smith Custom 24. Used to be my dream guitar too. It stopped being my dream guitar once I had one and realized that they are built no better than any other. Machine made and mass produced. They sound decent and look nice, but for what you get they are absurdly overpriced. They are NOT hand made, and while they do not lie about this fact, they are more than happy to let people think they are. As such they are so overpriced that it made me sick when I learned the truth. Reality is that they are very pretty. The "10 top" models look sweet, but thats just cosmetic. Did you know that their 24 fret models all have a dead spot at the 12th fret G and its been this way for years? Its a design defect that they are well aware of but do nothing to fix, and for $2800.00 thats just unacceptible. If you want a PRS, more power to you, but know what you are buying when you do, and buy some of the great condition used ones you can find rather than paying retail for a new one. __ My mighty steed

I've played a few and checked out a few of his works in progress. They are of phenominal quality and some of thre most playable guitars I've ever held. __ My mighty steed

I've owned many Fenders, Gibsons, Ibanez, Paul Reed Smith, ESP and more. They dont cut the mustard. This guitar encorporates everything I've liked in my other guitars and none of the things I hated. Most guys accomplish the same thing (as I have in the past) by owning a bunch of guitars. This is another solution. __ My mighty steed

I've waited my whole life to do this and damn am I psyched! I have comissioned Luthier Scott Gordon to build me a 100% custom shred machine designed entirely by me. The body shape and headstock are my design and all materials and electronics are my pick. A true one of a kind guitar. I will be documenting the process with pictures as he builds it. Specs: Scale: 25.5" 24 medium jumbo frets Solid mahogany body and neck. Neck through body design. Carved, highly figured curly maple top. Gabon Ebony fretboard w/ Agoya shell block inlays Stainless steel fret wire EMG active pickups (81, SA, 85) w/ 5 position selector Schaller Floyd Rose double locking trem Double acting truss rod Buzz Feiten tuning system with Planet Waves auto trim locking tuning machines All heavy duty potentiometers (25,000+ duty cycles) Fully shielded electronics compartments with tool clips and carved wood cover plate w/ magnetic attachment. No screws. Truss rod cover engraved with "O' Laochdha" Attached is my design. I drew it exactly to scale and gave it to Scott along with all measurements and specs. I expect the finished product to look almost identical to the image. Now I just have to wait 6 months for it to be finished __ My mighty steed

The owner of the dog is an ass. The poor dog and the old guy that the dog attacked both paid the price for it. theres no other way to look at it. I feel bad for the dog, and kudos to the guy for protecting himself. People seem unable to grasp that as responsible pet owners we not only need to protect other people from our pets, but we need to protect our pets from themselves. This ass failed on both counts. __ My mighty steed

Some "traditions" are just so stupid and annoying that they really need to crawl off in a corner somewhere and die quietly. Groundhog day is one of them. The Philadelphia Mummers parade is another one... __ My mighty steed

I've bought two Pilots from them in the past 2 years and on both occasions they were pretty close to their estimated delivery time... __ My mighty steed

I think its even simpler than that. I think everyone agree's that someone right to swing their fist ends if it might intersect with my nose. Same thing should apply to canopy navigation. Someones right to do a 270 and swoop ends if it might intersect at high speed with my conservative, straight in approach. I just dont see how anyone could see it differently. __ My mighty steed

Pulling the handle is WAY more important than being stable. If you cant get stable right away, then pull the handle anyway. Dont spend the rest of your life getting stable... __ My mighty steed
