Well i got my income tax check so i had some cash to burn ..I was in the market for a 3 single coil strat...A close friend of mine had been coming over with his new MIM Roadhouse strat...
I really started liking that guitar and mentioned to him if he wanted to sell it to let me know ...But i really didn't give it much thought...I was in the market for a 3 single coil MIM Strat that i could use as a base for a mod job like i did to my 2008 fat strat ..Since that guitar worked out so well i thought i would do it again..
Then this afternoon he shows up at the house guitar in hand...I thought he wanted to jam ..But i was wrong he said you got $250 bucks ...I said for what i was thinking he was needing a loan or something ..
But he said that he was offered a fantastic deal on a EMG equipped Gibson Les Pau something or another and that if i wanted the Roadhouse it was mine for $250..
Well he is now a proud owner of a very very nice EMG equipped Gibson Les Paul..And I now own a Roadhouse strat..
This makes my 4th strat and three of them are white...The first is my 73 Standard ..Then the two in the picture the Roadhouse on the left and my modded out Fat Strat on the right..He did include the 4 ply Tortoise shell pick guard that comes standard on a Roadhouse strat but i'm debating if i should just stay with twins?What do you all think[img][img]http://i612.photobucket.com/albums/tt203/InvaderCC/Picture052.jpg[/img][/img]

I like that...I take it you are a Quentin Tarantino fan also...
I will say the Roadhouse Strat may not be a MIA like my Standard or Ultra but it is a pretty impressive sounding and playing guitar...

I like the white pickguard on the Roadhouse. It looks good with the Arctic White finish. I vote for keeping them fraternal twins. Oly and Arctic. :wink:

Awesome deal on the Roadhouse. That's less then what Guitar Center would take on a trade in.
