A telecaster is a cutting board that someone fucked up. :P

Everything I've read seems to indicate that the circuit for the FZ-2 is based on the super fuzz: https://catalinbread.com/blogs/catalinbread-cabinet/boss-fz-2-hyper-fuzz https://equipboard.com/items/boss-fz-2-hyper-fuzz https://reverb.com/news/andys-vintage-picks-video-the-boss-fz-2-hyper-fuzz

Neck pickup on a 24 fretter doesn't sound bad, it just does a different thing than on a 22 fretter. The 24 fretter doesn't have the same flutey/hollow neck pickup voice. The 24 fret guitar has a more articulate and less round sound (in some instances I can totally see someone preferring it)...

This will get you what you want and will bond well to metal. Clear coat if you want it to last forever.

I don't get it. The tremoline looks exactly like a Floyd to me. There's a locking nut, a two point trem that the strings lock into with fine tuners, and some springs in the back. What's different?

. . . sounds like a touch of bassplayeritis. :P

No to a 24 fret guitar. I say go big or go home: I like to use the neck pickup a lot but it just doesn't sound right on 24 fret guitars because of the reposition . . . so if I was getting a guitar to play up super high, I'd get way more than 24 frets and do away with the neck slot entirely.

I think there's a frequency component involved in how your ear hears stuff too. The C. Rex is a 103 dB speaker, but mixed with the V30 (100 dB) . . . they sound pretty balanced in volume to my ears.

I've found that wax is a secret ingredient to an awesome feeling guitar neck if your neck is oil finished. I built a Warmoth guitar a while back and finished it in danish oil like my Charvel. Didn't feel quite right on the back of the neck when I was done though. So then I tried sanding it...

I don't want to alarm you, but the wood seems so soft that you've accidentally knocked two holes in that guitar already . . . :D

Allot space for a lot of stuff.

That's a very clean cable layout.

The FZ-2 is supposed to be based on the Univox Super Fuzz, isn't it? My favourite fuzz is also based on that circuit, which makes me think it's probably pretty awesome.

Absolutely! There are only a few brands I've found to be consistent enough that I'd risk buying before playing. If I like the specs for the neck and frets I've found that for PRS, Taylor, Godin, and Ibanez the pricier models almost always tend to be guitars that I'm happy with as far as...

That's surprisingly often due to AI scrapers rather than real humans these days.
