is greatly dependent on not only the sound, but the INSTRUMENT. Why
compromise with a whacky user interface of the Electro when you can have
a logical one like the Korg? Unless one just wants to be different. I

be different.... >>

here here. if the electro opted for drawbars, there might be more sales and
the way the B3 was laid out is the perfect way for the instrument and the
reason korg chose to copy the essence of the B. Sometimes the designer gets off on
tangents and negates the ergonomics of things and although he's pleased, the
buyer isn't.
have to disagree tho on the V vs. the Paul. they both sound different and the
V is definitely a metalist's guitar and so the Explorer for that matter, the
shape does create tones different from the other Gibson shapes. but i
digress....
