Kind of like his response to "what kind of strings do you use?"

"Long shiny ones!"

IMHO by "the long shiny kind" he meant long-scale flatwounds.

His Ric, perhaps? The Hofner definitely has short scale strings.

Not that a Ric has a real man-sized long scale either - I'd call it "girl long scale" or "extra medium scale" (running now from the wrath of the Ricsters ...).

Khaki, Kettle, Kings Bollege Bainbridge...? what a silly bunt... ;D
The random mind of a Silver Surfer...
If research was easy, it wouldn't need doing...
Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...
