.....sorry for spamming the board HAHA, but on public demand as a result of another thread, where numerous folks asked for a vintage vs. masterbuilt comparison, I did my best to make it happen.

Here is the result in seafoam green: :mrgreen:



Keep in mind that the masterbuilt custom shop model was not intended as a total copy of the 61' vintage strat, but somewhat close. However you get the idea. :)

That '61 neck pickup, it's a killer :shock: :D

Well done Mike, another brilliant demo. Looking forward to the next one. :mrgreen:

Great demo Mike, I would love to see how the new American vintage series compares to original!

Great demo as the previous one!!!
those guitars don't grow on trees but you do have a lot of good friends then.....!
I appreciate especially the clean sound, in particular the first chord/arpeggio section, is that recorded with the in-between position between middle and bridge pickup for both guitars?
It's interesting to hear how much difference there's between the two guitars, especially in that specific section....

Cheers!

Mike you rock. Wow Not boring at all. Thank you very much, that 61 has a great sound, and yes there is a difference between the 2 guitars. Don't get me wrong that Masterbuilt is incredible but that 61 has, as I hear, a little more sparkle then the masterbuilt, but as you say the masterbuilt is more playable, so they both have advantages over the other. Oh and by the way you are an incredible player I like your technique
Thanks again
