A significant update in the 1970s transitioned the guitar from a 21-fret neck to the 24-fret neck found on your guitar. This model became a staple in the British music scene, famously used by Pete Townshend of The Who and influencing countless \"jangle-pop\" bands like R.E.M. and The Smiths. This 1999 model falls within the \"paddle\" or \"Gumby\" headstock period (c. 1984–2007), which featured a wider headstock shape to accommodate larger tuners. The fifth control knob functions as a bass pickup volume equalizer or \"blend\" control, allowing the player to balance the output of the neck and bridge pickups in the middle position. The \"Hi-gain\" single-coil pickups on this model have a noticeably higher output than the vintage-style \"Toaster\" pickups, offering a fuller, less trebly sound than earlier models. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eALL EU PURCHASES ARE DELIVERED WITH TAXES AND DUTIES PAID\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eAll purchases include EU taxes\/duties paid, i.e., nothing further is due on receipt of goods to any EU state.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWHY BUY FROM US\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eWe are one of the world's leading specialists in used and vintage gear with over 30 years of experience.
