Years later the original paint looks really good, both intact and with moderate wear, as the flat black is an ideal surface for the beautiful patina of handling even without serious abuse. An unfortunate styling note, perhaps, but not a reason to scratch off the black paint as some owners did.
Although it looked sleek, it also resembled a neck-through guitar, which it is not, and upon looking more closely some people respond as though it were a phony, rather than the good guitar that it is. Ironically, the FX was the only model to carry a flat black stripe along the center of the body. They truly are the best of a great line of guitars, and deserve to be preserved and enjoyed. Beyond this, they play wonderfully and sound fantastic. This system is indeed bulletproof, I’ve shipped tuned locked FX’s across the country and stored them for months in varying humidity and they’ve stayed dead in tune.ĭive-bombed with abandon, they return effortlessly in tune, and if that’s what you need, they do it. Still set neck, it carried like the LX an updated Bendmaster FT bridge that added fine tuners to a slim cast body plate, and a matching locking nut. The Spectrum FX carried on as flagship model under the new naming system. Set neck double cutaway with maple body, maple neck, rosewood fingerboard, black hardware, graphite nut and Bendmaster FT two-post bridge, locking nut, two humbuckers, one single-coil pickup with three pull-switch knobs (V-T-T) for coil tap, fat (center on) and phase and 3-way selector switch.
