Continue : Fender scallop info

rite.... where was i....ah..yes.... about d FLAW......sum of u guys mite say....."huh????.....FLAW????... how kam dat guitar has FLAW" or "ah...cuai kali eh tuan punya gitar ni" or "ah.....nda pandai pakai kali uang nya"....hehehe, well as i mentioned earlier b4 IT's a 2nd Hand laaa... and wat gave it these flaw is jarang be-maintenance.... biasa laa...gitar mahal pebaik kalau jarang be-maintenance gerenti ada problem nya kan...k...k back about this gitar, well...i think i'd better start dari awal about gitar ani.
Ok... Obviously its a fender scallop (or sum know it as a fender CBS type), it has a sunburst color, where for me its a classic color coz if there is other color most guitarist would choose type of color, for most of the body area when looked closely there mite small dings(maybe..can't remember) and few scratches at the back but the front section its a common scenario where ervery strum leaves a mark. The front side of the body as you can see are mostly standard except for the tremolo..this not an original fender tremolo, its just a Gotoh(gold) replacement tremolo compatible with the guitar...well almost compatible anyway...the previous tremolo was also not an original fender tremolo...how i know this because theres NO fender logo/name on any of the tremolo parts. From my experience all fender gitar parts has their logo/name printed or engraved, for those gitaris kitani yang peminat or collector of fender guitars, you guys know about this...maybe lebih arif dari aku. like as i said, mostly standard even the pickups are standard three single coil pickup but to say the pickup is original that i'm not sure coz when plugged to an amp it does sounds good on clean sound(no distortion or effects) but it also sound good on distortion too even though i play around the 5 way selectors, especially top part of the selector....usually to get that yngwie sound when you shred the whole neck hehehehe....
Now lets talk more about interesting part about this guitar..the NECK.. as you can see it is also a standard 21 frets, rosewood fretboard, and maybe the neck base is alder or maple, and by the way ...its a SCALLOP... for those never play a scallop guitar b4, it can be a learning experience coz for a 1st timer when you start to play a chord and pressing it hard you may get an out of tune like of tune sound but its actually not, but for the experience gitarist or O.L (orang lama) or gitaris kitani yang sudah memiliki scallop fender, they'll play it like any guitar macam aying bah...hehehe. I was recently being ask an interesting question by one viewer of my blog saying that why is the scallop not deep? if that what he meant to ask. well to answer that question, it is not necessary to make it deep..theres a certain measurement or depth to make a scallop...bukannya kan antam-antam saja...from what i can see is that either this is an original scallop or professionally customized neck coz all the scallop are smooth and even...smua cun and bisai...i've seen a homemade neck and it doesn't look good and terribly done.
I think written a lot already untill you guys are probably bored hehehe...what i can say is that this is still a great guitar although theres a flaw which i did not mentioned in detail, it just need more maintenance, actually this guitar will soon be undergoing upgrades...can't say what or when but it will make this guitar much better.
