I was right about Headless guitars

I gigged a Steinberger a few months ago.

Being 6 foot 4 tall, I looked ludicrous. But my back never felt better the next morning (post-gig anyways).

They look stupid, but when you're advancing in years, they're a godsend.

I picked up a Lefty Kiesel Osiris in a store recently just to feel the ergos, would have played if built for normal, right-handed people. :giggle:

But it's simply too small on me, looked like a toy.....:dunno:

I am who I am, so it wouldn't change my playing, but it would look like I was holding a miniature. I'd still like to snag a nice one for studio use only, especially an OG Steingberger GR with Transtrem or a modern equivalent. EVH and a few others put that to good use. If I have the option, I'll probably get a multi-scale headless.

I have noticed a lot of headless Trendjumpers do NOT hang on to those guitars for very long. They might make a few YT vids talking about how great they are, then a few years later they are back to conventional guitars.....seems headless guitars are easy to play but don't have the same level of Toan.
