    Fender 60th Anniversary guitars

    New American Standard came via UPS truck and its not staying in tune very well as its COLD in the truck. Now that its been 6 hours, its staying in tune better. I called the GC guy as I thought I needed new strings, and He told me the strings are not a week old and not too many people played it...

    Fender 60th Anniversary guitars

    So I have heard ( dont know much of anything myself about guitars) that the maple boards will look nicer for a longer time, and that the rosewood, being much darker will show signs of more wear from strings on board being pushed in and wiggled around. (brain fart...I should know the name for...

    60th anniversary strat

    Hi Sunvalley I was wondering what you think about different necks? Ive only played my 9.5 radius Medium Jumbo frets with a maple neck and Frets........Are other boards going to feel that much different? I like the looks of the maple in that its light, instead of dark, but wondered if the...

    Fender 60th Anniversary guitars

    Thanks for the info on the Button (not a faux diamond). The case I have is a really good one, and even though its a gig bag and not a hard case, Im not taking it on an airplane so its fine. I saw a used fender case for 45 bucks and was going to go for it until I found out the guy was an hour...

    Fender 60th Anniversary guitars

    Im a little bit confused about the neck button. Does the American one have a fake diamond that looks like a real Jewell, as my MIM 60th has the normal diamond ann neck plate but the head stock thing is just a round piece of aluminum with a drawing of a diamond with the number 60 inside the...

    60th anniversary strat

    The guy who sold me mine was the original buyer and her did not play guitar and it sat around for 4 years without being played. I paid 400 plus 20 for gas for him to bring it to my house, as my truck was in the shop having its engine rebuilt. I fell in love with just the picture of it on...

    Fender 60th Anniversary guitars

    So am I wrong in thinking that every 2006 MIM strat had the little button and that EVERY one would be considered a "60th Anniversary Strat" but just NOT the Diamond Anniversary blizzard one I have??????? That is what the reply says on one of the responses I got back when I asked a question on...

    Pictures of Recording Studios

    http://www.thefret.net/vbimghost.php?do=displayimg&imgid=1834 I did not see any other things here about pictures and sometimes a picture can give you an idea on how to set something up differently or whatever and goes a long way in explaining something rather then in just using words alone...
