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.

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?
