Looks like a standard Strat in that first clip, but check these out. Picture's a little fuzzy, but those volume and tone controls look different. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IZe4O3-jJ3I&NR=1 And this one's more obvious - looks like the volume knob was moved. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9YQw2wJErDk&feature=related Great playing in all the clips, though. — Mark There are no wrong notes, just some questionable choices.

Could be a blender. Wonder if it was something he had Leo do for him? Obviously, it required some routing underneath. I just find it interesting that folks were tinkering with Leo's design right from the start. — Mark There are no wrong notes, just some questionable choices. Top

I imagine that the volume knob placement is to facillitate pedal steel type licks? — https://www.facebook.com/coffindagger http://coffindaggers.com/ http://thecoffindaggers.bandcamp.com Top
