Jimmy with his Phase 4, he even tried other electrics, but always came back to the Univox.

I'd say "fast" but I'm not that good a guitar player. "Faster."I've been playing jumbo frets mostly, so the frets feel low to me, but it doesn't affect playability. Within a half hour, I'd stopped noticing it.Not sure what size strings are on it now, but they seem a little light. Then again, I have .014s on my archtop, so everything feels light compared to that.Roller saddles seem to function perfectly. I played a bunch of Link Wray stuff last night and got happy with the wiggle stick. The thing is perfectly intonated. The previous owner cared about guitars a lot.

It seems like two out of three folks who had a "Neighborhood Bike" guitar around had a Hi-Flier.

As for the guitar, one of those silver Blacktop Telecasters with a pair of Univox humbuckers would be pretty "Thug Life".

Sell them to me. Or trade them to me. What are hankering after? What magic pedal are you missing? Do it. (waves Jedi hand)
