Pretty expensive for crap that you feel sick just watching.

I'd go with a turd of dog poo instead - that'll give me exact the same feeling - far less expensive though....
Someone knows where I can find the nearest woodchipper to throw my pieces of junk into?

For sure... I saw someone putzing with one a few weeks ago..
the tuning mechanism seemed to be a little slow..

What silly shit.. Why not get rid of the strings entirely, use
touch pads and hook it up thourgh midi to a soft synth..

I didn't like the VG at all.  The models were okay, but the alternate "tunings" didn't track well, especially the baritone.  You'd get this fluttery sound and low freq overtones.

haha I agree, same here. I hate seeing walls and walls and walls of strats and no offsets. And when you ask they think you are stupid for not liking strats
