Hey! That's not a humbucker platform!
I like black licorice!
First off let me apologize for being so rude in my last post as I was both half in the bag and coming fresh from yet another telephone battle with my ex who after more than 20 years apart still knows how to REALLY piss me off. I shouldn't even have been posting in that state of mind.Seriously? The thread is "If you were putting your Dream Strat together" - and many of the replies in here involve people doing a bunch of mods. So what if I've never played it? Secondly thanks for the rundown of the pickup selections, but I would have preferred your impressions of what they sound like ;-) I've read the descriptions, and I've even looked at the wiring diagram, but for example I don't know what "adding a special capacitor in parallel w/ the bridge" sounds like. But I do know what having the neck/mid or mid/bridge in series sounds like on my G&L, so I'm interested in how they sound on the Fender. I've also played a number of Deluxes (the model before the Elite) so I know how some of them sound, but they've changed the configuration a few times over the years, along with the Elite being a new platform.
You could say the same thing about a Les Paul. Or an S-540. Or a Tube Screamer. Or Eddie’s tone. Or...The entire point of the Strat is that you should take it at face value.
The hype is real.......... and it's spectacular..View attachment 53486
Is this the So Cal you were talking about, or is there another one...? Man, this one's not for me lolThats easy to make. Take a So Cal, get a new pickguard, replace the pickups and you’re done.
I suspect he meant a Charvel like this: http://www.charvel.com/guitars/pro-mod/pro-mod-so-cal-style-1-hh-fr-m-maple-fingerboard-snow-white/Is this the So Cal you were talking about, or is there another one...? Man, this one's not for me lol
Ah, got it. Makes much more senseI suspect he meant a Charvel like this: http://www.charvel.com/guitars/pro-mod/pro-mod-so-cal-style-1-hh-fr-m-maple-fingerboard-snow-white/
More and more I'm thinking it's actually this:
Was sitting here contemplating trying to fish for a Suhr <> Silver Sky trade...
Strat with pick guard, 3 single coils and compound radius neck. So , strat with Charvel neck!
In my dreams.
Asked my buddies at fender and they laughed.
Not in near future. Said I’m living in the 80’s
