IIRC the standard Squier 5ers are 18mm, and the Deluxe is 19mm.
I'm hoping for the tighter string spacing myself.
Narrower??? Now you want narrower???
There's no pleasing some people, huh?

Darkstrike said:I know, I mean Sadowsky make all their 5ers at 19mm, who am I to say they are wrong, I'm sure it's all issues on my end.
Wait, didn't we do something like this last week....

But what's the best string spacing for metal?
Darkstrike said:Metal doesn't have a string spacing, you only use one string.
So a string spacing of either 0 or infinite.

For the love of god, try before you buy!
Tmw2011 said:Honestly, that's not always possible.. You seem to be one of the few people around here that's actually laid their hands on one. Luckily, the price on it is low enough to where I (and many others, likely) would be comfortable enough ordering one online through a reputable dealer with a good return policy (GC/MF, AMS, zZounds, Sweetwater, Sam Ash) to give it a go, and if it's junk, return it and eat the $20 or so shipping and buy something else.
Ahhh sorry, Im from the UK so Im used to the USA being way ahead of Uk and assumed most stores would have them in stock. If you have the ability to return etc, then go for it! Sorry for tne confusion, Im a little too used to the crappy music stores back on my little crummy island![]()
Darkstrike said:I'm assuming that the UK get sent instruments before their official release, so they can all appear at the same time the wold over.
You often see new models either listed, or released on UK and Euro websites early, then removed when they realize they loaded them up too early.
The Epiphone Explorer & V reissue showed up on Thomann months before anyplace else, for example.
Im not angry, just dissapointed...

Maybe, I guess. However the point about how crummy my island iis still stands![]()

Darkstrike said:I hear that, this island may be bigger, but it's probably just as bad, if not worse, musical instrument wise...
Ahh, where you from bud? Im on thenTB app for iPad so I cant see.
