Like George Lynch's J. Frog, the flame guitar is basically a strat shape. I think it would be comfortable. Uncle Kev ???

Rick is "spot on" it is very much like a Strat except lighter in weight. Vic you love Strats so might like it? The one that I have I believe to be derived from an Ibanez RG550? I think that it is sweet!

I play most often sitting on the couch or even propped against the head board in bed while I watch television and it's not much different from a Strat. The pointy bits don't bother me at all. The guitar rocks!

Notice the "winning bid" is for a quote, not an actual body!!!

Yeah, you take the auction price off the quote to buy.

Doesn't seem too expensive for a body and paint from what he's saying in the auction.

I have a maple/maple Charvel Model 1 neck spare, but it's suited to a non-floyd setup and this body needs a floyd.

I agree! I couldn't having this guitar without a trem.

I could have the neck modded to suit a Floyd nut. It certainly would be cool to have the neck attached to a body. I do also have a spare Charvel chainsaw case which would work if I got a regular strat body for it. I wonder if the flame body would fit?
