Well it's been a very disappointing day to say the least. I finally got the call about my Custom Shop quote and all I can say is that I'm really NOT going to be a Fender fan anymore. They seem to refuse to do some of what I asked even if it were "master-built" (that's a joke term in itself speaking of Fender) and then comes the price :shock: :shock: :shock: ...$12,000+!!!??? They've got to be joking!!! My guidelines were far less severe than the Custom Shop Jackson that I designed (which is all about Shred metal) and they gave me a price of $4,500 for an axe that is 10 times what the Fender would've been in the first place. Yeah I still like my Strat (kind of), but it's time to move on to a company that actually appreciates REAL METAL TALENT and not just blues, country, jazz, ect. I'll be finishing up a new multi-track demo song called "Cut Loose" tonight on the Strat and after that, it'll be put back into it's case. Then I'll re-do it with a Jackson or an ESP and make it sound better anyway. After a long talk with my local shop, it seems that all that were involved share my opinion. Fender and Gibson's quality and pricing are completely ridiculous for what you get in the end...and all that really is, is a name on a headstock... :twisted:


Go Jackson, or better Charvel, from what you want.

They won't disappoint you and they're built in the same plant! :wink:
