I think we need to start an Offset-ass rumor that not clipping your strings allows for all sorts of harmonics and shit. We'll insist on it until Fender backs off on trying to convince mojo-nerds that it's false and ship all their new Jazzmasters with not only the too-far-back tailpiece but also an extra 17 cm of string length.

Also maybe we could convince punkacc99 to build a guitar with a pickup hovering beyond the headstock to pick up the unclipped tones.

the tone antennae create 13th order harmonics which increase the frequency richness.

Maybe that's why John Lennon did it, not to save messing up his aunty's scissors.

Tennessee Orange.
They don't have much information left on the DeArmond website, nothing about the M-75T. There was some information about other models, specifically the M-77T, and one of the colors it came in was Tennessee Orange.
