Are rails & blades the same thing?
There are single blade designs like the Charlie Christian type. Not exactly a strat on steroids type of sound though.

I pick a moon dog.
I think they are. My Godin has blades in the neck and middle. It does a decent job sounding like a Strat. I'm not a purist so sounding exactly like a Strat is not that high a priority.Originally Posted by tot_Ou_tard
Yeah, blades were what they were called when they first came out. Now, they seem to be called rails most of the time.Originally Posted by tot_Ou_tard
When I bought my Bill Lawrence L-150 back in the mid 70's, it was called a blade (single blade), because there were two stacked coils. Later, there were dual blades when some construction went to side-by-side coils.
