A couple of weeks ago I bought a MIM Sunburst Sienna Strat (HSS). It was a beautiful guitar, but when I got it home and played it, it sounded too much like my 2006 MIM Electron Blue HSS Strat. That’s not a bad thing, but there was little to no difference tonally. I took it back and for a few dollars more, I got a 2007 Sunburst Deluxe Player with the rosewood fretboard.

Can anyone that owns a DP Strat tell me how they are holding up? Any good/bad/quirky things I should be aware of?


Thanks,
Jim

The deluxe players strat is an amazing guitar. it should pair up really well with that mim hss strat. I dont think you will have any regrets. The only thing is the Vintage Noisless pups take a little while to get used to.

My friend you just made a great addition to your collection I have one and I love it. Maybe you will want to mod it, for me the most important mod I've made are the Schaller Straplocks.

Mine's not very old, so I don't know how long they hold up. I got it in May last year. I'm glad I got it when I did because every time the store has one in stock someone snags it or puts it on hold. They are nice. Don't worry... You made a good choice.

Thanks for the positive responses! I am very happy with my choice.

I plan on taking pictures of my gear this weekend, and will post them as soon as I can.
