When Azrael received his custom-made Dragon guitar, he posted some great pix of it. I sometimes use this one for my desktop.

Iv always been wondering:
How come his guitar has an open B string with no frets?

How come his guitar has an open B string with no frets?That was one of Asrael's specifications. The 7th string is fretless, and the scale is equivalent to 36 frets. There wouldn't be enough space between frets to finger them properly at the bridge end of the neck, so some of them are left out at that end of the scale.

so are there any benefits of having a 7th string that is fretless?

You could search through Azrael's old posts to find out why he wanted it that way. I don't know. I'm strictly old-school hard-tail six-string myself, but I do appreciate a really well-executed design. I think the Dragon is an excellent example of how to blend form and function.

I use a perfectly mellow picture of dusk at a lake with the moon crescent and 2 planets showing. Took it from the nasa site.

You're guess is as good as mine. I can't remember where I found it, just remember thinking it would be a cool background.
