Members Shuck07 Posted December 2, 2006 Members Share Posted December 2, 2006 I finally gave in to the '51 fever. Its a nice little guitar for the money. Probably mod it soon once the chrome hardtail bridges are back in stock at GFS. For the last three weeks, Ive been hitting every guitar store around here looking for a strat that "spoke to me". Finally found it yesterday. Its a jap strat, '72 reissue, bone nut, big gawdy head stock, makes me look kinda like Ritchie Blackmore when I walk by a mirror....Everything a strat should be! m/ As for playability, it completely out shined every American made strat Ive played lately (in my price range...lol). I absolutely love this thing. None of the Highway one's came close to this thing by the way. I have to admit, Im not buying the hype on those....but oh well, thats why they make different mnodels for different people I suppose. Sorry for the blurry picture but its too damn cold outside to re-take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Brian Krashpad Posted December 2, 2006 Members Share Posted December 2, 2006 Double congrats!I tried all 3 '51's in our local Fender shop but they all had bad fret ends. I know it was a simple fix with a file, but I was also concerned I might bleed to death before I got home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
