While on a business trip in Memphis, I wanted to pick up a butterscotch blonde telecaster. I went to about 4 music stores and finally stumbled into the last one after trying about 30 guitars. I was trying out their teles and was unimpressed, so I asked if I could check out some strats. I picked a couple off the wall and fell in love with the ugliest one. It's a new MIJ traditional 50's strat. I've always been skeptical of Basswood, But this thing feels and sounds incredible. The neck and frets are perfect, the pickups are better than Mexican, and the body is surprisingly resonant. After all of the bs I've heard about Basswood, I'm convinced those people have only played $250 Basswood guitars. The paint job is ugly as all hell, but the guitar is amazing. Anyone else get in on this magic??
