Worst change to a guitar made by the manufacturer?

True. The reverse V is poo. But what's wrong with a regular V? Besides looking silly, they're pretty easy to play.

I personally like a V. Standing up they can be as comfortable as anything and have great upper fret acess. Not real good for sitting down, although one can adapt quickly.

When they came out though, they were a bit too radical and space age for most. Only about 200 were shipped in 58 and 59. So that model at the time turned out to be a flop.

Lol. Right. I personally have a real hard time giving a shit if an electric guitar is hard to play sitting down. Stand up and play that shit like it's supposed to be played. Smash something while you're at it.

Standing is too exhausting.

Do you have CFS? Try gigging for two hours with a 12.5 pounder.

I rather not. I'm prone to back pain. And i like convenience.
