I am not sure if it is the same as a coil-tap...(My ASM has a coil-tap)
But I want one anyway. I will figure-out how to work it once I get it.
[I am going through a Viper phase right now.] |

But I have a Viper question...
Why does this one Not have a contour on the back?
See? Compared to the sunburst...
By serial number, the 'Natural' one is older than AJ's which I have, which has a contour shave-job.
Were they just lazy back then?
Somehow I usually expect the Older model to be better... Just vintage bias, huh?
Always looking for an education... That way if I apply for a job at a Music Store I can sound smart! |

I had a Viper III Custom that had the top front edge, where your arm goes over, contoured as well...much like a Strat. |
