				I am a raccoon who plays guitar! :D I've the RG350DX, soon to have Dimarzio pickups added. I might bring it depending on what fuss I need to go through.
 
 anyone else play lead guitar?
- 
				I don't. Never tried it though, Maybe if its possible we can hear some of your music.
 
 ;D

				Hmm... isn't a lead guitar slightly on the heavy side? And since lead's very soft (right word?), sustain's not that good either, I suppose. I like my guitars and basses made of wood, or perhaps carbon fibre or the like...
 
 ;D

				Dan, KryoMouse had the problem last year, tried to bring his bass on a flight and they denied him so he had to leave it at the airport

				xD What? No he didn't. We had one peice of handluggage each, and a large bag of clothes between us. That's all that was brought, and it all got checked in. There was no bass :S
 
 But yeah, it probably would be a bitch flying it over, airlines are arsey about stuff >.<

 I know of a guy having sand-cut his guitar out of a massive block of granite - the "heavy" argument doesn't count ^^

 That was on my flight back from Holland. o.o
 
 I was going to bring it, asked the airline beforehand and they were like "LOLWUT".
 
 It doesn't matter, next year we're driving!

 Yes it's heavy, but stone would have stiffness and vibration resonance.  Lead would not, and would absorb vibration rather than resonate.
 
 I could see a stone guiltar working... ;)
