I was surprised, too. Still, the guy said some stupid stuff.

I've given a lot of thought to buying a Coronado...but I keep reading about how it feeds back like a mofo thanks to the lack of the center block. The video where the guy played "Smells Like Teen Spirit" at the end with the Coronado didn't seem to have feedback problems, and he seemed to have a good amount of overdrive on. So I'm not sure.
I can't help about the shape I'm in, I can't sing, I ain't pretty and my legs are thin. But don't ask me what I think of you, I might not give the answer that you want me to.

At any reasonable volume there is no feedback but of course if you face a wall of Marshalls at full volume....

That's good to hear. That guitar's sound actually appealed to me a lot.

Feedback is a big problem at most volumes needed to be heard in a band situation.
I have tried, many times, to gig with all 3 of mine for years...and each time it fails, even at lower volumes.
Play alone in the bedroom and you're fine.
Competition Stripes make them play FASTER.

Somehow spending a thousand bucks on something that I'm just going to play in the bedroom doesn't appeal to me. Unless it's a hooker. A REALLY good hooker.

It doesn't feedback more than a Gibson 330.So if U2 can make it , you can. If you don't stay too close to the amp (which was miked on the PA, agreed), its' fine.JMHO.

very nice ones. The good thing with the Wildwood is that there are no similar guitars, all are different.

They look like they were made out of planks from an old outhouse...
But still look awesome for it.. hahaha
Be a good guitar for trying to play the brown note..

I love how they actually injected live trees with dyes. Those trees must've been screaming bloody fucking murder.

Try to play with your pickups NEVER facing the amp and it works out okay at gig volume. Turn around, pretend you're in the jamc.

It does make it hard to play with your back to the audience, though.
