OK, I admit the locking nut looks bad.

Do they make Floyds in nickel, as opposed to chrome?  That would look a bit more vintage.

thanks - now you've made my day - or not which ever way you look at it

someone will like it - but that just ain't cricket

The headstock doesn't look great - they should have Grovered it.

Locking nuts look bad enough on shreddy guitars but on the Junior, abomination doesn't even begin to describe the horror.

In fact, I don't even like trems on Strats.

I'm kinda disappointed they didn't put the robot tuners on: if you're going to go full Gibson you might as well go full Gibson.

The fashion police are on the case I see.

It's a shame the feds didn't confiscate all Gibson's wood, really.

I agree with you, but (based on the Landau thread) since the "Strat police" say it's not a Strat unless it has three single coil pickups, presumably it's also not a Strat if it doesn't have a trem.

I've often wondered why more folk don't just dump two of those pickups since the neck is the only one that sounds good.

I like it. Couldn't care less for tradition. If it does the job then it's all good.

As if that neck and truss rod channel needed anymore wood taken out of it....must be, oooh, a good 4mm of wood left under that locking nut...

Gibson at times could fuck up a two car funeral...

To be honest, if that's the kind of trem you like, this would be an ace buy.

Personally, though, not for me.

Needs to be a candy colour and then It'd be ace.
