Title: Stratocaster backing plate
Post by: greenweenie on February 25, 2006, 11:08:38 AM

Is there a difference in tone, sustain, etc. if I take out the backplate on my Strat?

+1 tsaka mag brip ka en wag dapat bukas zipper mo! aray pag sumabit hehe...

add ko pa na mas madali magpalit ng strings...hirap sa fender minsan kung baket di tapat yung mga holes nung backplate sa mismong butas nung tremblock, kainis.

Sabi ni Eric Johnson at Jun Lopito.

Although, napansin kong mas lumakas yun acoustics ng guitar.

basta don't forget to zip up....in my case...I have Ibanez's and can easily change my strings w/o taking out the back plate.
