LOL I went to this guy's MySpace page, and it appears as if he is influenced by Britney Spears! Hilarious. Great guitar playing too.

Re: Greatest Current Strat Player

If indeed only discussing current, hard to mention anybody other than JB or EJ (neither of whom, or even YJM for that matter was invited to the Strat anniversary concert, the organizers preferring the likes of Brian May, Ronnie Wood Joe Walsh and of course that Strat wizard Jamie Cullum LMBFAO)

Ever, is really tough for me because I loved the sound of Rory's beat up strat sooo much  and of course SRV's powerful hands on his Strat, but how can anyone come above James Marshall???

Re: Greatest Current Strat Player

Robin Trower is unreal

Jeff Beck is amazing

Ricky White from Screaming Cheetah Wheelies is highly underrated as a Strat player

Re: Greatest Current Strat Player

Jeff Beck
Buddy Guy
Kenny Wayne Shepherd

When I was a child I spoke as a child, But all I heard was how I should get ahead,
Now growing up it ain't anything but all This indecision with these debts and doubts
And worries hanging over my head. When I was a child I spoke as a child,
I wish I could remember what I said.

Re: Greatest Current Strat Player

John Mayer, Thomas Blug!!!!

JB jr

Re: Greatest Current Strat Player

It's hard to single out just a few, but Joe is/was responsible for converting me from a Gibson guy to a Fender guy. He did such a great job exploring all the different personalities of a strat. Then of course after he turned me into a strat-head he migrated to Gibson...but the dynamics behind that move are understood and covered under different threads.

Re: Greatest Current Strat Player

The best actual current strat model is the Eric Johnson sig. model.

So wouldn't the answer be Eric Johnson?
