Are NT-II's better than FR-II's?
Are NT-II's better than FR-II's?
for me it is more than squeally (i think you meant squeally) Dime shit, its more comfortable to me and puts out a better sound, the way my hand sits on it is more comfortable than a fuckin string through in my opinion. They're a hassel once till you get used to them, then they're always in tune. i love em.
it's one of those things
people like big fat necks, i can't stand them, but i'm playing a lot of fast crazy metal shit
i depise fat necks, i hate the gibson necks for some reason, the M-II uc is just perfect for me. I'm always on the computer like a few feet away from my set up typing a word inbetween a few licks lol
Yeah, I have a few different guitars, and my M2 custom neckthru with FR sustains just as well as my string-thru-body guitars (Jacksons and Horizons). There might be some imperceptible different, but if you can't notice it, does it matter?
I had an Ibanez RG350 with FR, though, and it had crap sustain, so it's definitely a matter of quality...
How long do you want to hold a note for, a year?
I have a few guitars with FR's and a few without including an NTII and they all hold notes until you (and everybody else) would have died of boredom.
I suppose there is something in the NTII (Due to TOM, string thru and being Mahogany) having a smoother tone that sustains better but there really isnt much in it.
Having said that, the guitar I own which would resonate and sustain most would be my Jem 7VWH.
Anyway, a lot of it is in your fingers and then your gear etc...
The question ishould be, do you like to use a tremelo? If so, get an FRII. If not, get an NTII. Both fantastic guitars.
all well made guitars are gonna have great sustain...
the ESPs are very well made... a Floyd Rose on a guitar isnt gonna "kill" the sustain...
i have a Jackson USA Kelly with a floyd and it will hold notes till the cows go to slaughter.
I also have TOM guitars that dont sustain for shit...
so it all depends on the guitars.
The Horizons are made very well and have great sustain.. FR or TOM
