Everyone should be aware of this,,,many have
seen the 1000 and 2000 Fender guitars from
the top,,,,but few if any ever saw the underside as Howard has displayed. I think it
shows the technology designed by Leo Fender.
And more so,,,if Howard was around during that time,,he could have been Fender's "Under
Cover Agent". Good job Howard,,I always knew
you knew your stuff. Thanks for the "peek" at what makes the 1000 and 2000 unique.
Leo would have loved to have had you,,the money he paid?...well,,lets put it this way..
He taught me money wasn't everything and he was right. Or was he??

If you place the mute slightly muting the strings,you can get effects such as a banjo
etc,,just give it a try,I used it for effects
that way,,turn the treble up and crash bar the guitar with the mute very slightly touching the strings,,you can vary the amount
of "muting" that sounds good to your ear.
Leo Fender was going to incorporate that idea
on the stringmasters early on,,It was Noel Boggs and myself who had the mute idea,,however few,if any thought very much of the idea,,I used it often,,,you can get some real cool effects with it.
Everthing LF designed had a purpose,,give it a try,,I think you will like it,,remember,,very slightly,and then adjust to your ear,,got it? lemme know how you like it.
You have a cool guitar there. Its built stronger than a "Sherman Tank" and weighs about the same as well....
