I've had a Stratocaster since I was 17, still have the same one. I palyed it exclusively for 15 years, then the pick-ups went microphonic, and the old Kahler Trem stiffened up. So I put it into dry dock and got a Gibson Nighthawk off of Ebay. I had to learn how to play it. I was so used to a Strat, that I was overplaying the Nighthawk. I'd hit chords too hard, bend notes too far, fret the high E-String right off the neck. I had to rebuild my swing, as they say in golf.

As soon as I could, I saved up and got my Deluxe Players Strat so i could get back to the way I played. I kept the Nighthawk for Heavy Rock and Metal, but my main axe has to be a Stratocaster, or I feel handicapped.

All the afore mentioned guitars can be seen in thread all over this forum

Yea your right, i have leaned more to the more mellow side of playing and i have seemed to have forgoten how to play very fast and i love how it sounds clean with a little overdrive added to it
