I am going to start digging my bomb shelter right now, cause the end of the world is surely near. I think I am going to wait for the Justin Bieber signature SG. Maybe one day Angus and the "Bieb" and trade solos on Hell Aint A Bad Place To Be. But I think my dream would be the Miley Cyrus signature ES-175. Steve Howe has one, why not Miley. You would think some companies would think and have execs. high up in the company that would say ' Are you insane, that is the most ridiculous idea ever" . I guess it is about the mighty $.

This one's a good one, too.

Although, it does look more like a burrow or donkey.

Wow someone actually agreed with me, I am shocked. I forgot how similar Zappa and Joe Jonas are in talent and skill and respect. Oh wait there not, sure the JB's are fine for your kids, but how many of you hard core Ric lovers are waiting in the rain to standing next to the "One Man Wolf Pack" get front row seats at a JB's concert. Chime in an let me know. I guess I just see things different than the rest of the world and what makes me laugh or strikes me as odd is not the same for the rest of the music listening public.

Wait there not? Where should we wait?

I was using sarcasm to compare Zappa's talent to the Jonas's lack of talent.

This tirade grows older and increasingly boring Joel, what point is it you wanna make you haven't said a thousand times already? Ok, you don't like signature guitars, and think the Jonas Brothers suck, (got it the first time, and the second when the post had to be locked).For a guy that hates them so much, you sure know a lot about them, hmmm, jealousy perhaps? Truth be told, I'd rather have my kids listen to them than some degrading self important gangster rapper or Norwegian Satanic Death Metal.

What are we in high school with so and so is better than so and so? Mozart and Beethoven played the pants off of any of your faves hundreds of years before they were even born, and D'jango and Segovia could outplay Jimmy Page, or any of your other "heroes" in their sleep. So what's the point there, only technical players are valid?

Just because no one seems to wholeheartedly agree with you, that makes you crazy? No, it's continuosly posting the same rant and expecting the outcome to be different that might make you crazy. Not really trying to bust yer bunyons here man, but give it a rest, you made your points, in 3 seperate threads about the same thing.

I guess you are not very good at interpreting and heeding subtle warnings Joel, so I am locking this thread. I have received far too may complaints about your ongoing obsession with signature instruments.

I strongly suggest that you not bring your pet subject up again on this forum.
