It's the real one. They could get a lawsuit if they used the name.

Okay, 2 questions I should probably know...

What does 'bound fretboard' mean?

What is the difference between non, single and double locking tremelo? Is it jus the way it will stretch the strings?

Ever see that white strip that surrounds the outside edge on a fretboard. Sometimes you also see it on the head stock and body too. It comes in all different colors and it's basically just cosmetic, but a bound fretboard just feels smooth and better to me.

Non locking guitars are like Strats. They just have regular nut and a bridge that doesn't clamp down on the strings.

Single locking is a guitar with just a Locking nut and a bridge that doesn't clamp down the strings.

Double locking guitars have a Locking nut and a bridges that clamps down the strings, like a Floyd Rose does.

Non locking tremolo is like those on a fender... basically useless

Single locking means the bridge only locks at the nut or the bridge.. NOT both.. which causes tuning instability.

Double locking means the strings clamp down at the bridge AND at the nut.

A guitar without a bound fretboard just looks so much better imo.
Bound- http://www.guitarasylum.com/JPGGuit...itor_deluxe.jpg
non bound- http://www.guitarasylum.com/JPGGuit...m/mockdeltb.jpg

A Non locking trem will go out of tune every time you touch the whammy bar.
Single locking will stay in tune better, but if you some dive bombs then the ball end of the string will shift causing certain strings to not stay the same pitch.
A double locking locks at the bridge and on this one you cut off the ball end so it wont shift in a dive bomb. Plus its DOUBLE locking. It must be better.
