Latest Addition: 70s Reissue Stratocaster
On my initial taste test against the Fender Standard MIM, I'm not impressed. The neck is fabulous, but the electronics so far have me disappointed. It doesn't appear to have been set up, so i'm going to do all the adjustments to this that i made to the standard, and then give it a fair trial. On a positive note, the thing is in MINT condition, and I got it with that killer case for 500 bones. So you figure $700 value at LEAST. If i'm not thrilled with it after a month, I'll just sell it and maybe even make a tiny profit.
I know what you're thinking. "This looks just like your other strat." I promise I don't have a thing for white strats with maple necks, but . . sigh. This thing was just too much like hendrix's woodstock strat to pass up.
