Just plain WRONG
(hmm, what would a Les Paul look like with a Strat tremolo bridge on it?)

A PRS, not Gibson. But you can see that it is also gross.NickS wrote: (hmm, what would a Les Paul look like with a Strat tremolo bridge on it?)

Fender's lawyers got on Rondomusic's case, perhaps? I don't know how similar a headstock has to be to trigger a lawsuit.hotrodperlmutter wrote:went from this:

I also wondered if Lakland had anything to do with it. I don't figure they actually have the head stock copy righted too but I feel like those headstocks were closer to Lakland than Fender.

Thanks. I don't think it's quite as bad but, like you say, wrong.astro wrote:A PRS, not Gibson. But you can see that it is also gross.

I actually like the strat with tune-o-matic, you don't have to set your trem up, and if a string breaks, you don't go totally out of tune. Les Pauls with strat trems, just plain wrong. A design built for sustain shouldn't be giving a bridge design that destroys sustain.

if a string breaks on your strat, and you go totally out of tune, your shit is set up wrong.

'Totally' no, but with a floating trem pitch of all strings will be impacted to varying degrees fo sho yo. If you know a way to stop that beyond those tremstop devices lemme know yr secrets naow!hotrodperlmutter wrote:if a string breaks on your strat, and you go totally out of tune, your shit is set up wrong.

^ i see what you did there...
I highly doubt they were "sued"
Last i heard fender lost some case or lost their copyright or SOMETHING HELL ITS LATE I DONT REMEMBER. it has to be near identical in shape in order for fender to even bother with it and it clearly isnt
