Alexander Posted October 28, 2004 Report Share Posted October 28, 2004 What's that thing sticking out the back of his guitar? I understand it's to keep his lead up and away, but what could be the benefits of that contraption as opposed to just looping it round your strap like most people do?

Scott Rosenberger Posted October 28, 2004 Report Share Posted October 28, 2004 Looks like a Metal Rod with a Carabiner attached. The only benefit I see is the cord doesn't get as sharp of a bend at the switchcraft Jack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jehle Posted October 28, 2004 Report Share Posted October 28, 2004 You can also impale people with it from the looks of it. Maybe he stands it up on end and plays it like a cello too. :-? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Librero Posted October 29, 2004 Report Share Posted October 29, 2004 well, he's been known to do weird stuff with his guitars on a whim every now and then... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thrashncrust Posted November 7, 2004 Report Share Posted November 7, 2004 What's that thing sticking out the back of his guitar? I understand it's to keep his lead up and away, but what could be the benefits of that contraption as opposed to just looping it round your strap like most people do? its so if he steps on the cable, it wont jerk and come out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GregP Posted November 7, 2004 Report Share Posted November 7, 2004 Right, but the way most of us loop it by the strap pin is pretty sturdy and it's not likely to come out that way, either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thrashncrust Posted November 7, 2004 Report Share Posted November 7, 2004 (edited) i am just surprised he doesn't use a wireless that kills your tone, plus... wireless is for rich people wanting the new way... eddie isnt rich, and that boy is kickin it oldschool, lol Edited November 7, 2004 by thrashncrust Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ikke_998 Posted November 7, 2004 Report Share Posted November 7, 2004 you can get a decent wirless conecttion for 100-200 €! never heard it live tough! its nice to see him play the old kramers again i just love those guitars! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorecki Posted November 8, 2004 Report Share Posted November 8, 2004 i am just surprised he doesn't use a wireless that kills your tone, plus... wireless is for rich people wanting the new way... eddie isnt rich, and that boy is kickin it oldschool, lol That's silly, This is the first time I've ever seen him NOT using a wireless. Only kills tone if it's a POS wireless. I actually think mine sounds better with, sounds a bit like a BBE Sonic Maximizer is in the chain. I think he's loosing it.
