Hot damn, I love those 650's. Too bad I'll never be able to try one. Awesome looking guitar, how does it feel? I am concerned about how it feels to play it sitting down. Please fill us all in !! | ||

"I am concerned about how it feels to play it sitting down." It is very balanced sitting down. I haven't tried it with a strap yet. The body is contoured so it is very comfortable against your body, no digging in. I love the wider neck just perfect for me. So it was this or a 660. Well you never know, maybe both. These are the pics that Kevin sent. If I can get a friend to take some more digitals I will try to capture the contour. The body goes from 1.25" to about .75" at the thinest point. | ||

Personally I want to see more! I've never seen a 650 in Fireglo I think. Looks really nice. | ||

Thanks everyone. I did try it with a strap and it is perfectly balanced and very comfortable. I just have to dial in the sound now. | ||

Hey Ken - do those come with gold plastic or were those guards + nameplate special ordered? Either way they look fantastic on that guitar. Very nice! | ||

It came with a chrome pickgaurd (included with the sale) and a black with silver lettering TRC. The TRC was painted gold, then the letters black. He had the pickgaurd made. I prefer the gold and have no intentions of going back. Here's a shot when it had the chrome pickgaurd.  |
