Why? Because it is the best sounding, nicest playing, nearly the best build quality Strat that I have ever owned... and I own quite a number of them from Fender, ESP, Jackson and Charvel... and this is hands down the best one in almost every respect.

And I own some really nice Fenders... but this one stands above them all. ;)

No, it's this one!! 1986/87 American Standard called "Moby"

Why?

Because it's my #1 and it can't get ANY better than this one!!

I think it would be pretty hard to beat this one.

Just think of how awesome a guitar player you could have been by now if you had only spent the last 10 years practicing instead of obsessing over pickups and roasted maple necks.

if we're talking about construction and duribility, hands down it's Rory Gallagher's 1961 strat. beat to hell and is still 100% playable. the guitar has had it's pups changed and it's neck swapped because the original had to dry out but the original was reinstalled. sat in a ditch for two weeks when it was stolen (in damp conditions). yeh i'd say someone got it right.

Oh my god. That guitar just... Wow. I want one like it. Love the red inlays and the red finish.. This isn't the Ferrari red isn't it? And the red pickups just set it off too.. Actually the whole setup just goes off like a frog in a sock

:mrgreen: :mrgreen:

This guitar oooozes mojo.. If I had this guitar, it would be my perfect one.
