    12:08 it actually depends; you can have some "no load" pot which means when they're fully turned there's absolutely no resistance load, while others might still have tiny load that will obviously cut the highs. Because it's all about the values of the pot and capacitors. One adjust the frequency of the signal to cut (like a pass filter), the other is the amount of signal that is sent to ground (and therefore the loss of signal).

    Just got mine last week and, WOW!!!! It has such great tone! I'm really loving it (my bandmates also love the tone). What it lacks in glossy finish is outweighed by the great pickups and the great 6105 fret wire! Also, the Indian rosewood fretboard has such a tight grain it looks almost like ebony - just very smooth and actually shines a little. The ONLY thing I would have done differently is to make the neck a little thinner - which I still may do myself. The tone you hear Cory producing from this guitar is accurate. This guitar is perfect for punk-pop tones, but also does great for classic rock, country, and blues. I feel it is a great value for the cost, and I usually cannot say that about other guitars. With the pickup selector position in the middle position, the 60-cycle hum is cancelled and the tone is beautiful. I am pleasantly surprised and impressed with this one. Will probably keep it and play it often.

    That guitar looks and sounds very nice. What a nice age on that new guitar. The brass just pops and certainly adds sustain. I can hear that i am missing these tones in the guitars i own currently. It has a depth to the tone, like maybe a full mid range with low and highs there but not cutting so hard that it shrieks treble or mudd's up with bass. The use of the same pedals is also important and a nice way to compare tone on different guitars with a foundation we can hear and easily tell differences in sounds.
    I also do not watch short reviews. They seem useless to me. Keep the format as is for the folks that want to really get to know the gear. Please don't rush it, the audience you have gathered is here for your quality. TY.

    I really don't read where people have had problems with the fretboards.
    Mine was horrible. You could cut your fingers on the high E side. The nut was way too high. .2 at 1st fret. I threw a graph tech nut on, finished the ends correctly, lowered the action and now it is a playable instrument. It is a cool guitar, neck a bit too thick for my taste, small handed guys take note. All that said, with shipping it was 274 delivered, 12 bucks for the new nut, 286 well worth it.

    Hello! I have the SL 60 Surf green I had to have it setup by my local luthier. When I first received the guitar, the strings we're a mile high and you could only adjust it so much. The guitar tech shimmed the neck (bolt on) and turned it into a playable guitar. It's sounds pretty good but I live in AZ and the neck is still drying out, so I need to have it readjusted, cool little guitar, cranked through a old silvertone tube amp. Great pickups and hardware.

    The thing about Gibson and Fender is Gibson used to be a big offender of overpriced guitars and they still are but if you buy a studio Les Paul or a tribute Les Paul you can pick up a used one for under a grand and they are great guitars if you get them set up, if you really have a problem with the 490 pickups which I think sound great, you can buy Lindy fralin paf for a few hundred bucks which I have in my SG and they sound absolutely phenomenal as good as any real paf and certainly in my mind Superior to burstbuckers. Fender on the other hand used to sell guitars for reasonable price but my experience now is different. I had an an American Strat from about 20 years ago with Texas special pickups that I bought for about nine hundred bucks and it was an awesome guitar. I also had a Japanese Strat that was just a very special instrument and the Japanese make great instruments as evidenced by Richie Kotzen Telecaster. Enter fender custom shop. Unlike Les Paul's where from what I can tell a standard in the studio with the same pickups are the same sounding guitars if you happen to get a great piece of wood on your studio. All the binding and bells and whistles don't really make much of a difference. I have owned a standard, a studio, a custom and now a tribute. I can honestly say that the studio that I sold was the best one. It was just super light with a natural finish that was the equivalent of aged wood so it had lots of residents acoustically and just seem to have better sustain and warmer rounder tone. That guitar was 1100 Bucks new and the standard was almost 4,000. the nice thing about standards especially in bursts is they hold their value in some cases appreciate. Fender Custom Shop makes great instruments but I've noticed that the standard American strats and teles now seem to have suffered as a result. you can call me crazy and maybe it's because I've just played too many of the five grand Custom Shop guitars at guitar store is just to compare them to what I was thinking of buying and after playing them I didn't want to buy another Strat it sounded so much worse. I think one of the main reasons the custom shop Relic guitars sound so good is because the wood has a chance to breathe. This is very similar to the slick concept and it also seems to be true of certain tribute & Studio les Paul's. What I'm trying to say is that what Gibson charges $2,000 extra for which is the heavy polyurethane finish and the Binding, certainly doesn't add any tonal qualities. I wonder if with fender, the reason they're older vintage guitars sound so great is because the wood has aged and a heavy new Finish is not compromising the tone. I know the custom shop makes awesome guitars and there's more going on Than Just A Relic piece of wood, but the fenders I have played recently have not measured up to what I remember about the old ones which could be but I'm simply comparing them to a much better more expensive guitar that wasn't around 20 years ago when I bought my last American Strat. a few years ago I was staying with my fiance's family for a few weeks and they had a budget music store down the street from them which sold only Squier versions of the Strat. I ended up buying three of them that looked pretty cool figuring I would just replace the pickups, maybe the bridge and tuning machines. I know some really good players including professional players have stumbled upon some Squires that were just as good or better than the real thing but let me tell you that these were not them. there was very little that anybody could do with these guitars to make them sound good other than spend at least five or six hundred dollars to have a guitar that probably didn't sound as good as a $260 slick Strat knock-off. To begin with the hardware was dogshit, the pickups were dogshit and the neck was a piece of garbage. I always thought Fender offered a better value than Gibson in terms of guitars but now I realize that although the the starting price of Gibson is higher, if the Gibson name is on a guitar it's usually damn good. with Fender that simply isn't true and you actually have to play the guitar if it's not custom shop because they are so inconsistent. a Mexican Strat might be better than an American Strat in many cases. if you're paying between 500 and 2 Grand for a fender it's no guarantee that any of them are going to be good you just have to play a lot of them. Let me say this, telecasters are ten times more consistent than stratocasters
