PART 2: FEEL, QUALITY, BONNIE PICTURES AND OTHER CONSIDERATIONS

21:10 Weight, wood
22:32 Neck radius and profile, frets
25:10 Vintage saddles… I don’t get it. Moan. Block vs vintage saddles.
27:23 Bridge, G&L’s superior dual fulcrum system
28:25 Most versatile? Fender’s volume, tone, tone Vs G&L’s PTB (passive treble bass) system
31:43 Most versatile 2: G&L’s push/pull pot neck selector - Telecasterish tones
33:44 Which one to recommend?
35:08 Thoughts on sound comparisons - most powerful, most stratty, most clarity, warmest, bitiest, various vague words used to describe tonality and playability is king.
