    No but I really want to. They're designed for bands with only one guitarist to fill out the sound somewhat.

    My friend made a 6 string bass. It's simply amazing...

    I love six-strings, but unless you happen to play for Dream Theater there just isn't really enough use for them. Five will do me nicely. I can't ever see myself actively using the C string enough to justify it, and as I've said before, they're a bitch to play, especially fingerstyle. On a related note so Colm's post, one of my ambitions in life is to build my own guitar, not to have one custom built but to actually do it myself, from scratch, body, neck, possibly pickups, everything. It'll be terrible but it'll have my signature sound. :p

    Also, if you build your own guitar it will be perfect. A friend of a friend made his own, and it has really weird fret spacings so no one else can play it. But when he's using it, it's just...wow

    If I do it right it will be perfect. However if I do it right it'll be a frickin' miracle. :p I'd also love to get a baritone Les Paul and refret it for better spacing. Les Paul tone with the fret spacing on my Ibanez. Yummy. ;) If I did that to a normal Les Paul I'd end up with all of about... five frets. :rolleyes: Ah, the joys of guitar nerddom.

    My guitar has a hole in the middle...I think it may be broken...

    No that's where the sound comes out...

    Unless of course it's a solid-body electric, in which case, for future reference, a guitar will not, I repeat will not, stop a cannonball. :rolleyes:
