      Have one more ash strat style to build. With a Jb Jr neck Jb Jr bridge and a hot alniico Ingle middle in grain filled purple just need clear coat now.
      And a fender super switch..
      Abjx I won't Ave to spend 1400 either.
      Pretty darn versital and my current with a p90 rail bridge and two custom shop fat fat 50's neck amd middle is pretty damn versitkle also.
      Have less than 200 in that.
      I'm a lucky man and refuse to pay for a head stock.
      I'm totaly all for not paying these prices for the name but neither will replace or do what my sg400 epi, and Michael Kelly patriot premium will.
      And neither of those 3 will ever pull off a Tele sound.
      I guess it comes down to what versitkle means to us.
      Not everyone has this cash to spare these days it's getting worse also.
      People need to start saving not spending. The crash is coming fast. Trust thaf

    I heard about this guitar and decided it would be my 50th birthday present to myself. I had to wait half a year to the day for delivery. I love everything about it. The neck is perfect, it does everything, jazz, metal, shoegaze, ambient tonescaping. It came set up well and absolutely flawless, and I appreciate it's MiM, because I could not have afforded a USA model. Other than probably most people, I discovered Radiohead through this guitar and not the other way around.

    I tried one of these at a local guitar shop a few years ago and loved everything about it except the tone of the Sustainer pickup when the system was turned off. It seemed kinda lifeless, but it actually sounds pretty decent here. Maybe it was the amp I was playing through. But yeah, everything else about it was awesome, especially the neck shape. I love thicker necks.

    A remarkable strat. Two of my favorites strats are this signature model and the Lincoln Brewster strat. Both are fantastic mixes of features and styles while still being strats; and neither needs or expects you to know or even be a fan of the signature players. Annoyance #1 for me is that I assume it's still a screw in trem on this one; I prefer a pop-in. Annoyance #2 is that 9-volt necessity you mentioned. I'd also add locking tuners, but that's just me.
    Great video and congrats!

    Awesome pickup combination on this!
    At first glance I thought the neck pup rails where fattened for better better volume balance, because I did it for non staggered pole pieces on single coils for the D string (allways silenter). I filed 6mm dots out of 1mm thick soft steel and super glued it on the D pole pieces. Now the D string is as loud as the others. 🙌🏼😊

    Amazing video as always, Just like the Eric Clapton model that Ed's guitar was based on, the preamp circuit in the guitar has to be powered in order for the guitar to work. It is a bit of a nuisance but the advantage is that it acts like a small transparent, always on boost in the guitar! A little bit like EMGs or Fishmans or any other active guitar. That's also why you can not get a PU DC resistance reading...

    Glad you finally got your fav artist's signature guitar. I'm intrigued by the tonal possibilities of the EOB Strat. I wonder for anyone who buys this, would this be the latest love affair for a time but then end up in a case cause it's too specialized. Or could it be the One True Strat for someone.

    Thanks. Certainly an interesting Strat model. I was wondering if the passive pickups worked without the battery, and you answered that. That's possibly a missed opportunity, but then I suppose the point of such a guitar isn't to allow it to be played if the battery dies.

    I saw Radiohead in Southampton at a pub called the Joiners Arms just before Pablo Honey came out. About 300 people packed in and they were so good. Obviously they went huge and based on the performance alone deserved it. Also I have had my eye on that guitar since it came out. Finding one second hand in the UK is hard though; people clearly like them and keep them.

    Yes I am a Radiohead fan. And yes I own an EOB Strat from the first year of production. I agree with everything you said about it. It is an amazing guitar.
    I also agree that the battery is a pain. I have other guitars that have a battery compartment and it is not a big deal to switch out the battery. But the EOB battery compartment is so tight I find it difficult to switch out the battery. They coulda done better, IMO. But that's a minor beef really. The guitar itself is a blast.

      The plastic of the compartment lines a smallish wood frame. Just eyeballing it, any replacement would either be too big or would hang out of the space. Basically, there is barely enough room to squeeze a 9-volt inside. Yes, it annoys me, but the awesomeness of the guitar makes me happy regardless.

    Hey Landon
    I’m a Radio Head fan!
    But disappointed with the EOB.
    I bought the EOB from Sweetwatwer in 2021.
    I found the neck difficult to play…to chunky for my preference.
    Also found the SD JB jr bridge pickup too bright for my preference…almost unusable in position 1
    I have now completely modded the EOB.
    I designed a pcb busboard with (plug & play) for the pickups and
    Changed bridge SD JB jr with a Dimarzio BC2 and moved the SD JB jr to the middle position.
    Kept the Fernandez neck pickup ..it is awesome!!
    Changed neck to a roasted maple 12” radius CBS head Strat with locking nut.
    Tossed the Fender Tremelo and installed a VegaTrem!
    Now it’s sweet to play and amazingly versatile.

      So glad I found this comment. I'm in the same boat. I got it for really cheap ($600) because the sustainer switch was broken and that was easy to fix but I found I didn't like the neck and the nut was cut bad so the high e string kept sliding off. It's in the shop now getting a new nut but I was also thinking about upgrading the bridge. If I don't like the way it plays after the new nut I'm going to replace the neck. Was also thinking about changing the humbucker for another single coil. Any advice? Thanks!

      What nut are you replacing with?
      If you plan on using the Tremelo a lot keep in mind the string trees also affect staying in tune.
      As for pickups - that’s an individual preference thing, but if you are going to change to single coil - you may want to replace with a Texas Special in the bridge to match the Texas Special middle pickup.
      Again, that’s an individual preference regarding pickups as different pickups are wound for different high, mid and low values.
      It all depends on what sound you want from your EOB Strat.
      All the best to you!
      Let me know how it turns out👍

    There is one other "con" about this guitar that maybe you can shed some light on. When you engage the sustainer pickup it negates the pickup toggle switch. This becomes an issue if you are using any other pickup besides the bridge pickup. When you flip the sustainer on, it completely changes the tone. What if you want to sustain using other pickup configurations? Is there a way to have this option?

    • @landonbailey
      @landonbailey  Рік тому

      the sustainer is one of pickups so it's not available in the other positions.

But I dislike active pickups. In your opinion... is this a Strat worth buying even if I didnt knew Radiohead? (BTW... I hate guitar repros... but if Fender someday release a limited run of the Jonny's Honda Tecaster... I would sell things and get my hands on one... JG: also my fav guitar player... by far)

    Hey Landon,
    Definitely a pretty cool Strat man, I’m just wondering why they just didn’t decide to just go all rear routed since the two toggle switches are already like that. They would’ve just needed to elongate one of the existing backing plates there already and would’ve gave it a much nicer look ( of course that’s subjective, some people prefer having the pick guards ).
    You’ve definitely come a ways since I first started checking your videos out man, cool demo. That Princeton also sounds real nice, I have a Hot Rod Deville which I love but the damn thing is just way overpowered for home playing, I should’ve bought a deluxe…. Live and learn 🤣
    Thanks for the feeds man 🤙

    Of course the Radiohead guitar player has a computer chip board in his signature series. I wonder if Ed o' Brian thought it was a bit campy and predictable? He said after ok computer that the band was buying up large quantities of keyboards. It forced him to design his guitar to mimic a keyboard. I wish they would have just continued on the same path as ok computer, they were at their best in my opinion.
