Exactly. My understanding is that the lock washer bites into the white washer. I could be wrong.

Doesn't that defy the purpose of the lock washers? I thought they needed to bite into the enclosure.

I'd be very happy with a Tokai, they even have some nitro finished ones now that really good looking. about 1/5 the cost of an R9, 1/2 the cost of a Standard and "guilt free".......... They're not too common here in the US. There's a seller on Reverb that's based in Tokyo and ships worldwide. It's pretty tempting. But lately I just have not been into playing my hum buckers. My PRS 594 largely sits unloved. I may wind up selling it. Feels like a lot of cashed to be tied up in a "nice to have" guitar. That and I am becoming less and less enamored with the bling aesthetics. Not that I have any problem with anyone that is into the over-the-top blingy PRS models. But I think "plain and/or beat up" just suits me better these days.
How about plain and beat up prs?
I've had it since 2000 and have played so many gigs with it I've worn through the nitro on the back of the neck and it's on its second set of frets. I've got a set of Monty's pafs and I rewired it to remove the coil splits as I never used them. If I need single coils I use a strat or a tele.
It's different enough sounding from a les Paul to justify having both though.
Thankfully tokai are a lot more common in Europe where Gibson don't quite have the same hold on the dealers.

I just get the foot switches with metal washers or replace the washers.

That is extremely gorgeous. Swap it for a hard-tail and it'd be perfect

I totally expect a t rex with a beard for the artwork...When this one came along I started going through my old builds... and realized of all the pedals I've built... I've never actually built a Fuzz Face...
