then I know how it will sound on his rig. But not how it plays. And the guitar is gonna sound different on each amp. But I mean. You have to build that guitar good to make it play like the original vai guitar.

There's a difference between $1500 and $10.
Heh, for $10 you can't go wrong though!

No, but they're a quarter of the price of an ESP or Jackson custom guitar, so does that make them far worse than their more expensive counterparts?

Again, in case I didn't make myself clear:

Ran - Polish, Awesome dude, Eastern European, prices = low - matching the fact you're getting of a guitar maker from Poland.

Man off ebay - $10 - maybe shitty guitar, random dude

Big difference between 10 "dolla dolla" and 1000 "dolla dolla" (hehe, i've been watching too many vietnam war movies recently)

fuck, yeah, the sentencing is shitty blargh, blah blah, drunk etc etc, ,
