I could not say as I still do not even know what the official prices on Fenders are anymore. Since the price hike when say just about all artist sereies axes went to $2,200 I see them all over back at $1,600 and also Deluxes are cheaper as well as a lot of other models. So what are the real prices?

Oh my word. I hope this isnt why Doc's had so much trouble getting his?

Guess it's time for my Hotrod to go into the vast storage pit that is my moms house.

So any new word/rumors? There is still a Strat listed.

It certainly looks to be the case. My Fender dealer by here still has an AV '57 hot rod strat left on display. Will definitely be checking it out before it's gone.

Sounds good Nevin, I plan on making the trip tomorrow. I'll let you know what the staff have to say on the matter (though they are usually quite misinformed).

Well you know how good they are.

Giggin my 57 earlier. Not kiddin you mate, I got so aggressive with the thing. I whacked it, hit the next chord, and the rest of the band were laughing at the look on my face. It had gone so far out of tune, I thought I'd put my fist through it. All that had happened was the G had dropped to D and the trem had pulled back through the loss of tension.

Giggled it off, turned down a bit, and smiled my way through the rest of the song.
It's a guitar you gotta play like you were duelling Satan. Not really a mild guitar (though it can do that), it's like a bull. You gotta grab it by the horns and go for it.

If you do get the set I'll be forever envious.
