Topic: My Own Strat :D

Hello everybody!

As some of you might now, I have bought a new guitar, A Fender stratocaster classic 60's.
I bought it used but in MINT CONDITION!!! so it doesnt look used at all. and it was almost 50% cheaper so I think Ive got it really cheap, I really love it.

This is my third electric guitar. If you want more specific info you can find it at http://www.fender.com/products//search. … 0131000309

So Yeah, mines in sunburst, looks really nice. I compared it to a classic player 60's when i bought it (it was in a second hand music store so it was used but still in a store) and the classic player had better pickups, but I have to say that I prefer the neck on my guitar by some reason.


here is a pic with my mobile phone, the only camera i got:

Heres a pic from the stores website, this is exactly the same guitar

Ya she's clean, good deal.   I'm stuck on strats & teles, but always get new pups pretty quick.   I've never been happy with stk fender pickups.

Nice find! She'll look great given a few months of wear!

Congratulations. Touch her just right, and she'll purr all night.
Okay, that was corny...

It is not contorted....it is supposed to be that way! That is a Mexican 60s Reverse Special Strat. It is supposed to be a poor man's VooDoo Strat. (a Hendrix Tribute Strat that Fender put out a number of years back that was somewhat pricey)
This is what I play when I put on my fake "Fro", headband,  and frilly shirt and plug into a couple of Marshall Stacks and fly my freak flag! wink
