Yeah... I wouldn't bring that up in the topic of harmonic BENDS. Maybe for vibrato or whatever, but the thought of getting a half or whole step bend by pulling on the neck is a really bad idea. You did say use with extreme caution, but just to keep the record straight. I myself have done this for small vibrato effects, but ya, bends and the neck don't go together. I can just imagine snapping the headstock right off. :eek:
