I do not own this song! Here is Jan playing much smoother than me ua-cam.com/video/veQA24I3lX4/v-deo.html Easily one of my favorite guitar instrumental songs. I loved it the first time I heard it. Its not fast, but still pretty hard. Jan is a whammy bar master. I flubbed a bend at the end, but overall, it's close enough.

    Yeah, I've bought new guitars on occasion, but I usually buy used guitars as well. ..I have a set of those eraser looking fret sanders as well, and I must say they work awesomely. Now this isn't something I've tried yet, but I've recently found that Wilkinson is now making these locking saddles, and they make them for various different bridges. What they are is a saddle with a screw that is in the saddle that locks the string right onto the saddle right before the saddle edge, and works like a locking nut, but is at the saddle end. Anyway, I've watched videos on it just this weekend, and they make the bridge end completely stable as far as tuning goes...so my plan is to get the Fusion III, and buy those saddles and replace the stock Wilkinson saddles with their locking saddles, and I anticipate that guitar will rarely go out of tune once I get the strings stretched out. Well, paused at 14:53 in, so back to finish the video. Thanks for posting this, and hope you and yours are doing well.

Just wish some places around here carried em and I can play, but I think I need to but on payment. Love that headstock,just cool vid.

      So, I think that the LTD looks cooler. However, the Harley Benton is much better. The pickups and body will be close to the same quality on both. But the neck and tuners will be an upgrade with the HB. The biggest difference is the Floyd Rose. The Floyd Rose 1000 on the HB will be dramatically better than the ESP Branded one. So, The HB is cheaper and better IMO.
