Very nice pics. Olympic white is just gorgeous. I was seriously considering buying one just like yours, but I couldn't find one to try and I was a little nervous about the "thinner C shape neck". How do you like the neck :?: and how does it compare to the modern C shape :?:

Edit: I just saw that you guitar is a 2005. In that case do you have the thick C shape :?: Either way I'd like to know how it compares to the modern C. Thanks

It's simply incredible. I've owned a lot of Strats and this is by far the best. It's also the best Guitar I've ever owned and I've had 335s and Les Pauls not to mention some really nice Strats and Teles. The trem system is second to none. The bridge is set to float and with the LSR roller nut, locking tuners and no string trees, the guitar stays in tune no matter how hard you use the vibrato. I really do believe there is no better vibrato system out there.

The neck is nice and chunky. I have large hands so the bigger radius suits me. I usually string my Guitars with 10s and have recently starting stringing Strats with 11s for more tone. This Guitar is strung with 9s but the hot noiseless pickups are so good, you'd thing you were using 10s or 11s.

One of the guys on the other Forums commented that this is the only artist signature guitar with a two point bridge, I did not know that.

I cannot recommend this Guitar highly enough. It's the best I've ever played or owned.

Wow, this kind of love chokes me up a little :lol:

Seriously, it is great to hear that you are so happy with your guitar. 8)

As for myself, I don't like the thicker necks. I have tried lots of different guitars and I always feel more comfortable on the Fender modern C.
