  1. My Strats have been: -MIA Std Rosewood Nk stock pups -MIA 40th anniv. Maple Nk Bill Lawrence pups -MIM plain old Strat Rosewood (see below) -CIJ 68 Reissue Maple (two stock pups and a SD mini59 in the bridge) -MIJ 50 Reissue Maple (stock pups) The best playing of the lot were the two MIA's. They both had very rich unplugged sound and the sustain without the amp was just crazy. The nicest build was the CIJ 68. The fit and finish of that guitar was as nice as any Custom Shop guitar that I ever played. The only one I have left is the MIM. I put a Duncan '54 in the middle, a DM HS2 in the neck and HS3 in the bridge. I keep it at school where I teach. I change the strings once a year (whether they need it or not) and I absolutely love playing it. The freakish thing about that guitar is that it is always in tune. I use the bar a lot and bend the **** out of the strings (I'm a Scott Henderson wannabe)...it never needs tuning. I really don't get it, but...I'll take it. My advice...just shut your eyes and play. If you feel it...that's the one you want.
