Hi folks

Anyone know how long the Lone Star Strat has been available? I got a Frontline mini catalog through the post the other day that featured it and the Roadhouse Strat, but neither seem to be in the New For 2007/8 section of this site. It may have slipped under my radar, so to speak. I'd rather like one. If it had a hardtail it'd be about perfect for me, but i could always use the block of wood trick on it.

Regards

Marge

The LoneStar Strat was recently reissued a few months ago. You can see the specs on it here...

Yeah those really came out of nowhere along with the blackout tele. Always wanted to try out a lonestar. I like the vibe and the concept. 8)

Thanks guys. Think i'll start saving now. It's not much more than an MIM standard Strat, probably sounds better than an MIM Fat Strat cos of the SD pickup and definitely looks better than them both. To Flamekaster, is the PG good for blues and rock? I imagine it is.
