Yeah he's good. Got into him back with his "Trouble Is" album. At the time I thought he sounded kinda like a cross between Hendrix and SRV. Pretty obvious who his influences were.

Definately has some talent and soul!

I can't figure out why his signature Strat is Mexican made.

Oh yeah, he's quite the musician! I've got a couple of his albums and enjoy them immensely.

Big fan here.

I may buy the kws strat. It's cheap enough to collect.
Most likely the white with the celtic cross.

MIA is more expensive than MIM, correct? So why are some signature models more expensive than many MIA strats if they're made in Mexico???

Interesting. You would think the Artist Signature Models would only be American made since most professional guitar players do not play Mexican Strats.

I know mine is American.

I like KWS. I'm not a die hard fan, but there's nothing I've heard from him that I don't like. I look forward to another album from him. Is that true? He married Mel Gibson's daughter? interesting.

Yes it's true, they both drive Dodge Chargers, he has an SRT8, and she has a R/T with a HEMI
He gave me and the owner of the dealership a advance copy of his last album before it went on sale,
