I love that colour! What is it called?

I have a transparent purple DT and a purple burst HCS, but that pic makes me want to order another TAG just for the colour. :eek: :)

And as for what a Bulldog with a Floyd feels like... amazing! I think this is where the recessed pickups and overall geometry of the guitar shine even more than on a regular Bulldog. I've played LP's with Floyds and didn't care for how high the Floyd was off the body. The Bulldog feels perfect! And the sound... HUGE! The HN3+ sure is my favorite pickup in all my Andersons, but it screams the most in my two Bulldog Lockers! If you're looking for a fat sounding guitar, this would be the one to get, Zoran! :D

Awesome guitar Markus! Are you in standard tuning with those .011's or dropped? Just curious as to the feel of the strings on that guitar with OFR. Thanks!

The guitar is tuned to Drop C#, Armando. I usually play .010s on my long scale guitars which feels a little floppy. The Bulldog Locker with .011s feels a tiny bit little tighter than .010s on the long scale, which makes for a nice stable Floyd.
