What's a stinger?

zslane · 02-23-2009, 05:15 PM

In film production lingo, a "stinger" is an industrial strength power extension cord. Not sure if it means something different here.

Here's one:

Plek'ing: Sending your guitar out to be analyzed and adjusted by a PLEK machine, an automated laser-scanning, fret-shaving-and-polishing, neck adjusting device designed in Germany.

A "stinger" is a guitar that has the back of its headstock painted black, ending in a pointed "sting" towards the neck. AFAIK, this is mostly to hide imperfections in the wood.

tsuen · 02-24-2009, 02:15 AM

AFAIK = ... As Far As I know...?

OFR- Original Floyd Rose tremolo, cost more, made better.... is the idea?
LFR- Licensed Floyd Rose tremolo, made by aftermarket or guitar mfg, Jackson, LTD. ect. Cost less.

Sure they rarley show up on LP's but this is a guitar forum.

FTW....well ask Zack Wild?

Harmony · 03-11-2009, 04:26 AM

Axe.. that actually took me a while to figure out it was the slang word for a guitar.
I know I am not only one as someone else asked me that question a while ago.

CS.. Custom Shop?

It took me a while to find this thread, and when I did find it, I couldn't remember where I saw it.

I think it would be a good idea to have this thread somewhere else, or maybe in FAQ or in the Introduction thread?

Those that don't visit the Custom Shop thread that often would not read this.

Thank you for the info..there were some slang words/abbrev... I didn't understand until now.

Zoshquin · 03-11-2009, 04:39 AM

what's the slang word for Axe?

Nope, it's just a cosmetic finishing touch. The wood under the black paint is fine.
