they posted there gear list on there blog

and HH means humbucker humbucker

Did someone delete the first half of this thread? I feel like I'm missing something here...

No, I don't know what tuff means, who uses what?

I get the thread now, anywho

Blacktop I'm guessing because each model comes in black with a blackguard (and most of the non-black finishes have black guards)
...though some of the strats have white guards and the JM has a mint guard.

Guess fender didn't really think that one through.
HH as mentioned just means humbucker+humbucker pickup configuration

I think the OP was saying that the Blacktops were "yuck" as in not good and Tuffteef though he was asking about a band whose name is Yuck.

haha Sorry man, I was just saying yuck because the blacktop jags look super bland to me.

Well the link on what they used for recording was still pretty cool.

Blacktop is in reference to the black amp knobs.

Blacktop 'cause it sounds badass. Like you're playing on the streets.

This is the definition I will store in my brain

The blacktop jazzmaster has a humbucker in the bridge and a p90 in the neck, no rhythm circuit, and no locking trem. I dunno much about the rest of the blacktop series. I modded my bt jazzy with a gretsch style tone switch and it now has the best clean tone I've ever heard from an electric.

The hh jaguar has no trem and two humbuckers.

ahhh the trem! That's what was missing!
