Spector basses are like this, apparently - Ned Steinberger designed the NS-1to be super comfy and they stuck with it. From memory, Steinberger originally trained furniture making.

Explorers have the same weird off kilter thing, but you kinda don't notice it cause of the giant butt on top. Explorers are also designed pretty well overall. It's not just that one side on the Kramer is larger than the other, but larger in a way that doesn't make spacial sense. Your brain is expecting it to be symmetrical in the waist and it isn't at all. All sorts of offests work just fine, but most of them have some line where you can figure out "halfsies" and this... doesn't.

I remember seeing the singer from Hatesphere selling one or more guitars explicitly because his beer belly wasn't compatible with them. I want to say he said something about playing flying V's exclusively because of it...

I loved my King V. Even the cheap ones feel great. And then I sold it because I needed money. It might still be hanging at CME in fact. Edit: inre "suspenders," Marissa Paternoster from Screaming Females started using a belt instead of a strap a couple years ago and it certainly looks rad af. rickiep00h fucked around with this message at 23:29 on May 19, 2020 |

i get that it's self-deprecating but i got a double chuckle from: a) guessing (correctly) they'd be super slow-talking americans b) trying to figure out if the sugary drinks were part of the bit.
