Robin Finck being someone's fave guitar player is like someone saying T-Pain is their favorite singer

Well then you're in luck. Slash owns no publishing rights to that song, and isn't even credited as a writer.
Um, isn't Slash the one who came up with all the killer lead guitar melodies in Estranged, along with the main guitar riff?
Regardless of whether or not the initial song was Axl's idea, that song has Slash all over it, regardless of publishing rights.
Yeah, that was one of Slash's big gripes in his book. How Axl had come in with this song that was pure piano, and Slash had put all the guitar melodies and everything to it. That one I can agree with, as you can hear Slash's input all over it.

I'll smoke Dr Love's ass anyway, so it's not like it matters. HA!
Oh ho ho.... that's how we're gonna play it!! I accept your challenge. We're doing this like Lionel Richie: all night long. It's on like Donkey Kong!
After you guys do this, you should work together on a cover tune. One does guitar, the other bass, the other vocals,etc. Someone put it all together into a song.
I'm in love with this idea. Everyone can forward me tracks, I'll put it all together in Pro Tools.

How does that stack up against the movie? I love that flick, but I'm afraid it's 'cause of the great performances by Cusack and Black.
Well.. it's actually based London, so that makes it a little different right there. Other than that, the movie follows it quite well. A lot of it has just been Americanized though. A lot of Rob's narration is dead-on. It's actually one of my favorite movies. Watching it has been a prerequisite to dating me that I've given girls!

Well Taylor's are more balanced. Not sure about the Seagull, but it's definitely not as bright as an Ovation. It's more than enough for a bedroom guitarist. It's got a solid top, so it's not an entry level guitar by any means.
The mids and lows are where this thing shines. It'll do anything rhythm with no problem. It's not that it doesn't have clear highs, they just don't shine as much as the lows. It's a little lower than the Slash acoustic sound. Think intro to "Civil War," which I think Izzy played with a jumbo. Arpeggios are just fine, it's very pronounced. Chords really shine on it. It's really good for bluesy stuff, as it's a little darker.
Electronically this thing is awesome. I've gigged out with it, and have had no problems with noise or degradation of sound. Plugged in, it's not bad, but when I've recorded it I've always mic'd it up, as I would with any acoustic/electric, even if it were a Martin. You just don't get the "wood" sound through an acoustic pickup.
I've never had problems with the neck. I play really heavy gauge strings, so I can't comment too much on the bends, as it's pretty much impossible at my tension.
Hope this helped!

Funny you should ask, that's the acoustic I have. I love it. It's not a very bright guitar, but you'll sure cary a rhythm.
