It's not really a 27 string guitar. More like a hybrid guitar/harp. Pretty awesome though.

Michael Hedges used to play something similar.

I wonder if tuning that baby is like painting the Golden Gate Bridge? When you've finished at one end, ya have to start over at the other! Grin Grin Grin

That's what it's like tuning a guitar with a Floyd Rose.

And that's why I've never had much luck with whammy bars of any make! I end up yanking the bar off and locking down the bridge and play on!

Yeah Floyds are a pain in the ass if they're set up to float (as most are). The trem on my Strat is flush with the body so I can bread a string and not go out of tune.

I've been lusting after a Les Paul with a Bigsby as of late though.
