The Revolution also has no pickguard, and an additional black control knob is included, as a knob that didn't match the originals was used as a replacement at one time. The Revolution also different tuners (gold Grovers), and marks are made in the headstock to simulate where the impressions the originals would have left. I have both, and will admit that the Revolution sounds a little different, but any two models of any guitar, especially a hollowbody, are bound to sound somehwat different. This gives the neck a slightly different feel, and is said by some to increase the resonance of the body. The Revolution model is meant to reproduce the condition of John's guitar after he had the sunburst finish (as in the '65) sanded off, so it has only a very light layer of matte-finished laquer on the neck and body. '](*,)īesides the color, the depth of the laquer finish is different.
Lol' date=' oh yeah I didn't realise they were a different colour.
