Well, I'm back in the Fender family again.

I was completely free of Fender products after trading my '65 Deluxe Reverb Reissue for a VOX AC30 a couple of weeks ago but just picked up a nice MIM Strat with hardshell case for $180 :D

After polishing the frets and giving her a much needed bath, I am a happy camper. Funny, this is actually my 5th Strat, if I'm not mistaken. I always come back but I guess a good question would be why do I ever leave in the first place?

Oh well, as always, pictures will follow soon.

You're always welcome back to the Fender Family! It's a long and winding road but it will eventually lead you back home again! 8)

I dunno, man. We'll have to wait and see. I am really digging the PRS CE24 traded for my Highway 1 with Custom Shop '54's. I can still get the jangly single coil tones but have the extra dirt when I want it.

I do like the looks of this one though...

Absolutely beautiful guitar. I would not sell it, unless I got a guitar that looked exactly like it, or better (trying to think of what that would be).

I'm quite a fan of red Strats with darker pickguards. Not just Strats either... I'm considering refinishing my Melody Maker in red.
