The scalloping on the padouk looks very similar to the scallop on a jackson randy rhodes custom order i had in the early 90's. Nowhere near as deep as the malmsteen but the same kind of round curve albeit shallower.

What are the heads a JVM and DSL? dont know how you use stacks. I used to disconnect the top speaker if i couldnt have em side by side, they take your head off, particularly with marshalls current aggresive treble sound.


I was looking at the irregular width of the flat top bits where the frets sit. I'm sure it doesn't affect the feel or sound. But the Fender scalloping looks a neater job, to my ignorant eye.

Regarding the double stack: a formative experience for me was spending an entire Who show with my nose peeking between Townshend's monitors. End of the '70s, this was. At that time he still had his wall of six Hiwatt cabs, and I thought I'd never know anything like that again till the Second Coming. Much later, I discovered that even Pete only ever used one or two of those cabs; the rest were dummies. Wow.

Much more recently, I sat about ten feet in front of Frank Gambale playing through merely a Marshall halfstack. That was the most excruciatingly loud, painful, unpleasant experience ever, utterly spoiling the evening.

So I just can't imagine how Mr Strat God stands in front of that terrifying rig on a regular basis - [yelling] Strat God, I said I just can't imagine... Oh, never mind...
