I just sold a John Mayer sig strat - Cypress Mica for £1,200. I'd like to use some of that money and pick up a bluesy strat - any ideas?

Cheers- S

Nearly all Strats are 'bluesy strats'

i would suggest enjoying yourself by trying out as many as you can.

I don't know how much $ that is but check out a '62 RI if you can,or the Hot Rod version.

A John Mayer Sig.

Try the Kenny Wayne Shepherd Signature, I just tried it the other day and I'm GASing for it really bad.

That was my first thought. Isn't the JM Strat a bluesy Strat? In any event, what type of blues sound are you after? What guitar player's tones excite you?
