One-piece fretted maple neck with a huge profile, 21 frets and black dot position markers. Single round string tree. The neck is dated in pencil "TG 10-54" [Tadeo Gomez, October 1954]. The neck cavity is also marked "10/54" in red pencil. Four-bolt neck plate with serial number ("8532") between the top two screws.

Goddammit Phil, EVERY time you play that riff, I think you're gonna play Clash City Rockers, and I'm always SO disappointed when you fucking don't.

@liveandletsdive 8:20 Dirty Deeds

[Blompcube]

i think that song at 4:20 is cissy strut, by the meters.

@1991stratplus the "bridge" position bypasses the tone control completely for a super-bright tone. the middle position allows you to use the tone control as normal. the "neck" position is like having the tone control pre-set to 0 so you get a really muffled tone. at least i think that's the way it's wired.

@MadSpectro7 i think it's called a soft V

4:30 That is Cissy Strut by The Meters, did Jeff Beck do this version? I like it... a little more rocky than funk, but I like played both ways.

Funky Meters.....Sissy Strut.

Phil, its Cissy strut by the meters, later covered by the awesome john mayer :)

Love you bro, awesome playing as always!

[1991stratplus]

Sweet ax, wish it were mine, simple and perfect. Except i prefer the strings on hard tail do in through the body.

Phil x police

[metallica321456]

the selector acts as a quick tone switch it goes from full tone to half tone to tone fully off
