    Come to think of it, not a lot of signatures have multiple colors. Aside from music man, since their signatures end up becoming part of their core models, but most signatures just end up being a single colorway. Yet Tom had multiple colors for both of his fenders. It’s kinda cool

    • @daemonspudguy
      @daemonspudguy 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Technically the Les Paul was a signature guitar. Other than that, which is debatable at this point, I think the Eric Clapton Signature Stratocaster is the only signature guitar I know off the top of my head that comes in multiple colors, probably because Eric actually uses them and that tends to be how Fender handles that from what I've seen.

    • @daemonspudguy

      Some of the Ibanez signature guitars have multiple color options, but I have a feeling that at least in one case, Steve Vai, that's because again he uses them.

  • @MichaelSheaAudio
    @MichaelSheaAudio 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

    The thing about tone demos is true, there's literally no reason to do them because we're not really hearing the guitar, we're hearing your amp, speaker, pedals, microphone if applicable, etc. The only real way to do tone demos is to just record a DI and let people download it so they can put it through their own equipment. Unless the guitar has something weird going on with the pickups, like those new multiscale Schecters with the straight bridge pickup (I'm curious to hear how it affects the low strings), then it's just going to sound like a regular guitar. This guitar sounds like any guitar with a standard bridge humbucker.
    Cool looking guitar though!

    I bought a Squier Starcaster w/ active pickups, swapped all the electronics (Fishman Abasi), added locking tuners, and it sounds fantastic. My only complaint is that the frets feel scratchy on bends; they could use some polish. I imagine the Fender doesn't have that issue?

    I've tried to do builds like this...tune o matic bridges with bolt on necks in angled pockets. They just never set up well. Its SO much easier to use a tiltback headstock with a TOM bridge (or recess the bridge.) It's just a truly bizarre design choice. The lack of a tone cap to roll off some signal on a fairly cheap-o shrill ceramic Duncan is also another bizarre design choice.
    This one should have been left on the "bad ideas" pile.

  • @cellarcatband
    @cellarcatband 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

    I must somewhat disagree with you on the “does nothing to your tuning stability”. Actually when you have a non-locking vibrato and divebomb it a lot, locking tuners do help with tuning stability. For a fixed bridge like here - yeah, more of a convenience feature.

    • @casanovafunkenstein5090
      @casanovafunkenstein5090 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      To be honest, if you're wrapping the strings properly, stretching them to take out the slack, and you have a well cut and lubricated nut, then non locking tuners will be fine.
      The problem is that a lot of people don't do a particularly good job of doing that with new strings, so they play the guitar and it goes out of tune because the strings aren't as tight around the post as they should be, then they swap over to locking tuners that give less room for error and their perception is that locking tuners fixed the issue with their guitar, when in actual fact it's often a setup issue that requires knowledge and patience to troubleshoot for each guitar as well as some degree of technique on the part of the player to get it right.
      I love locking tuners because it's much more convenient, but it's exceptionally rare that you'd actually need to upgrade the tuners on an instrument that's not absolute garbage to begin with.

    My main complaint about this guitar: one pickup. 🤦‍♂️
    I need at least two pickups. Not only does the position change the sound, but you can also adjust the height to get a different sound. Switching between pickups allows you to change between these different sounds in one second when playing live. I guess people who will get this guitar are only going to need one sound.
