Sunroof and windscreen wipers.
Look at YouTube for thebasswhisperer reviewing a Ripper fretless. Sounded great to me.

Yeah man! I don't much care for the Ripper, but the voicing is definitely conducive to fretlessness!

What a cool old piece! I don't see Teiscos in that kinda condition very often!
What do the toggles do?
pu seletors - most players who play near the neck tape them both 'on' - I play near the bridge and like them a lot. (both off during break!)
Not to mention the mighty Tin DogThe Jam, Cream, Nirvana, ZZ Top, Motörhead to name a few...
Tin Dog
I wasn't trying to say he was the first but when I think Flying V in metal I think polkadot Randy Rhoads
And that it wasn't ESP or Jackson etc that gave the V it's metal association.

Flying V? Chris Spedding, Hendrix, Dave Davies, James Dean Bradfield, Albert King and Ash (Tim Wheeler).
Speaking of Ash, another trio with TBird content
