I like the little TSOM logo on the headstock. Nice axe.

9 of those strings are wasted on the parts he has to play

Is that the Scorpions audition pic sorted?

Way back in February, in the good old pre-Covid days, Dylan told me the band had �a LOT more surprises coming in 2020.�
Just saying.

Seriously... it looks like a parody of 80's pop metal.

hey, les pauls/SG's aside, all gibsons are much much uglier. and dylan would never offend mrs smith with tacky bubblegum-on-titty album covers (which is all the scorps had going for them before they sold out anyway IMO)

i did say "nice guitar dylan...can i have the firebird then please?" but i dont think i need to worry about making room for it yet...

Isn't that the idea?

Sadly, methinks, Mr Catalyst took the last vestiges of that pastiche out of the door with him. I hope I'm wrong.

If he did they'll probably have to borrow it back from him at some point lol

12-strings - circle is complete.

looks like he's stringing it diferent to waynes though. husseys was double-strung (e and octave e, a and octave a etc ) whereas that looks like he's strung it eadgbe twice.

yupp me seems to remember another cool guy who plays 12 strings and that was part of the band a long long long time ago in a galaxy far far away

As a sad and pathetic old loser, ie. a sisters fan, it is interesting to see a newly built 12 string with a sisters logo on it. Like, why make this?

Possibly to revamp some of the older songs and play them with the same instrument they were recorded with? If so, that's a good thing as it means the live sound will be shaken up a little.

If it's to record, then that's even more interesting, as it implies a continuity of style with the first album and perhaps an acknowledging of that style being a hallmark of the sisters sound.

Or, you know, it could just be a blonde dude posing with a cheesy guitar.

One from column a, and one from column c i suspect

I'm pretty sure it looks like it's strung like a standard 12 string, with the octave strings in each pair. Also apparently Wayne used to use standard tuning apart from using a unison pair on the G, instead of having the high octave string.

And the guitar looks exactly like a Revelation RJT60/12, which is their Jazzmaster style 12 string.

its a dave cresswelll customj but it is a jazzmaster copy yes.

A couple of years ago I nearly bought an Aria Pro II RS-800-12 string like That Guitarist used to have. Unfortunately the bloke wanted a bit too much for it. And it's the only example I've ever seen in real life!

(I did get to play Walk Away on it at least)
