  • dude what's with the leg?! Good jammin man!!

  • AH! I've been waiting for someone to ask that!!... i dunno :/

  • ~Nice jammin'....how do you like the little frets compared to american strat...~~

  • I prefer medium frets normaly, i don't really prefer the thin ones on the EC strat but they are obviously part of the general playability of the guitar, which is one of my most comfortable to play. Although it's a bit weird to play modern rock on because the bends are slightly harder and i find sliding can catch me out where the frets make quite a sharp blockage against the finger as opposed to a jumbo fret say where the rounder top of the fret allows your finger to slip over smoothly.

  • whats up with the frets?

  • Nothing, i described how they are to me in that post..

  • hey bud, sweet playing- thats a maple fretboard yeah ?

  • Yeah man on mine i got 10s for it and it pretty tough 2 bend but man when i put samo ernie ball 9s on there....Its Great.

  • but then heavy distortion tends to null and void a lot of tonal character, the mid boost i always have set on 10 to be honest but the 5 position marker (it gently clicks into it) on the tone knob is where a standard strat tone would be at 10, and there is a noticeable difference in brightness and punch playing clean and with mild distortion but not so much with heavy distortion, other than that the guitar is so easy to play, not great for big bends though! It has a 7.5" or 9" radius i believe.

  • thankyou!

    It's a pretty individual tone for a strat, but a strat through and through still. It's very versatile too! Clean it sounds awesome with chords or soloing especially the neck pickup, and with the TBX it makes a huge huge difference to a clean tone in volume! and it beefs it up as well, makes a much thicker tone, with mild distortion it will take you from warm crunchy blues into a thicker harder distortion and a gain in volume, with lots of distortion i notice no effect
