The invader looks to be my kind of guitar, if I didn't have a Carvin that is pretty much identical. I could see myself ordering one in metallic silver or something though (I wanted a bolt + in large fleck silver but Carvin would not do it). Would probably go for the + model (H-S-H) as I have an H-H and a H-s-s (actually H-H-H) coverred. That said, I gravitated to G&L for the ASAT as I was looking for an alternative to the telecaster to play country on. Then on touching one I fell in lust over it, so no looking back. As for Floyds, although set up is more tedious, they are unparalleled for performance. Unless you are a string popper (I never break strings)

Please let us know the time on your gig this Saturday. I am sure I can find the Applebee's in Lake O.

On my recent vacation I had the opportunity to try some seared Ahi on watermelon that was fantastic. I do like fish, I just hope we don't eat our way out of the limited resource.
For being a guitar player (not much of a player) I really don't go to guitar store very often, so I have never seen an Invader in the store. Given the lack of first hand experience I can't have any useful opinion. I don't really play much high gain type music and I find that my SC-3 is totally adequate for what I play.
Let me know the time of your Applebee gig. We've known of each other for years now, we live in the same town and have never met. This may be a good opportunity. Will you be playing solo or with a band?

I Like the ASAT and Legacy body shapes but my favorite G&L remains the 1st body style Interceptor.
So, how is the table dancing at Applebee's?
I am off to see Tom Petty tonight - should be a good one.
