Bowie plays a Steinberger while rollerskating through a shopping mall. A bit NSFW.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-u10bLJ0PY

I kind of like the small square body Steinbergers - it's the ones that have a more regular guitar shaped body that look wrong.

I rocked one of these for a couple of years in the early 90s. It was really fun but getting replacement strings (silicone!) was a nightmare. Finally another player from the noise band I was in made me an offer for it and it was farewell, eraserhead-baby bass:

ashbory bass was awesome! the strings are back in production thx to fender reissuing it several years ago.

the transtrem, which let you physically transpose the guitar +/- 3 half steps iirc in like half a second
Could not for the life of me figure out how EVH got these crazy legato chord changes until I found out about that feature on this song:

Kind of yes! I have tuned in all fourths before and sort of love it (NB I do not tend to play many full chords anyway)

Isn't Fripp's tuning in fourths, the one he has played in since the 90s or so? Sorry, muso question, but that is what this thread has become.

Oh, not sure where I got that bit about Fripp tuning in 4ths.

not going to muso this up, but i still love the interview where somebody asked fripp how he came up with his alternate tuning and he gets all pissed at the dude and explains that his tuning isnt an alternate one, its the right one, and everyone else is just too stupid to accept it.
