I have been thinking about buying a Strat for some time now, and finally found one I really liked. My buddy has a Vintage Hot Rod 57 he was gonna sell me, at the last min. he decided to keep it, I really could'nt blame him.
So over the weekend I ordered a new 1, and with the special Presidents Day sale I got it for about $1450, only $150 more than what my buddy wanted 4 his (he paid over $1800) Can't wait to get it, it should be here Mon. or Tues. It will be a fine addition to my Les Paul. COME ON UPS !!!!

Congrats! There's nothing better than finding the deal that you've been waiting for. To me it makes it that much more enjoyable.

I think you are really going to be content with a 57 hotrod!! Never played one but from what I gather here on the forum and from super member Nikininja it's a great guitar. Will be a wonderful addition to you Les Pauls!! Congratulations and please post pictures when you can!! :) 8)
