now that's scalloped

I hear people bend the notes out of pitch on regular frets all the time, imagine one of those people on this thing....

That is really neat and is definitely something I would be into.

Just should have grabbed a Hitler guitar at this point

true, but that would cost more.

no scalloping required.

I remember you having one

Looks like a great travel guitar too!

But I bet it feels a bit different to a standart guitar?

not as much as I thought it would; but you do have to position your thumb correctly on the "spine" of the neck. IIRC, it only took me 20-30 minutes of playing it the first time to get comfortable with it. That said, they also sell a plastic/acrylic snap-on fretboard for an additional cost:

which isn't cheap...and I didn't buy one with mine because it seemed to ruin the whole point of getting this guitar in the first place.

I’m not brave enough for that stuff. Nor rich enough haha

It is lightweight, right?

UPD: read on the site, 3 pounds is great!
