Really? I think it looks like a great improvement over the TOM on the 607. I'm a bit more irked by the middle pickup thing.

It looks like it is. Most guitars that have those kinds of bridges are string-through.

len 25.5"
B1b .052" NW == == 11.01#
F1# .065" NW == == 11.16#

len 27"
B1b .052" NW == == 12.34#
F1# .065" NW == == 12.51#
weird.....so why it's so floppy?







thanks B Lopez

heavy7-665 is a jewel in the rough

You am need help, your right hand is all fucked up girl!

Definitely gassing for the FM408, but I was hoping they'd come up with something other than black-on-black. So boring

because those strings have double windings and thin core, that's why the floppyness is here.
