Re: [SurfGuitar101] Spring Ring

mctippens - 19 Feb 2002 01:14:50

I never noticed such a sound on any of the four or five strats that I've had
over the years but maybe it's just part of the characteristic sound of a
strat that I have accepted. I do leave off the spring cover on the back
because it makes it easier to restring in a hurry so my stomach may be muting
the springs. But then this I haven't always left that cover off.
