Members TU BE Posted July 21, 2012 Author Members Share Posted July 21, 2012 99 USA Roadhouse and {censored} no. It was originally SSS with white/chrome hardware and a pearl pickguard. It's got a Pearly Gates in it now and the trem is blocked off. EDIT: Started off looking like this I normally don't care for pearloid but it looks good on that color Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DARKMETL/ Posted July 21, 2012 Members Share Posted July 21, 2012 Man, took my usa Strat to practice the other day and it is the first time in a long time I wanted to smash a guitar. It's not a guitar I usually use but figured it would be perfect for the project I am in, not sure where it went wrong but it about had a 1 way ticket through the wall on the other side of the room.

Members bish0p34 Posted July 21, 2012 Members Share Posted July 21, 2012 Love mine. I want to get another one and keep the single coils in it. I did a Dave Murray job and put DiMarzio Super Ds in it.A little sampler I recorded earlier for a student... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Matt Gnarly Posted July 21, 2012 Members Share Posted July 21, 2012 I have an 86 MIJ Strat that's stripped and in pieces waiting for some spare money to get it painted, it's a pretty great guitar but I prefer Jazzmasters and Telecasters right now.

Members NotYetDead Posted July 22, 2012 Members Share Posted July 22, 2012 I tried a couple of cheap strats several years ago, like the $99 squire sales at GC, and really couldnt meld with them. Having mostly been a LP player I finally broke down and got one a month or so ago.... This might start another unneeded addiction 2012 Am Standard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members colejustesen Posted July 22, 2012 Members Share Posted July 22, 2012 I love the Strat shape soooo much... It just feels so comfortable to me! Here is my MIJ Fender Contemporary.... I just sent off a tracing of the pickguard so that I can get a new one made with traditional humbucker routes... I decided to go with a 3-ply B/W/B from Greasy Groove... I am also painting the back of the original neck because I had to fill some dings with wood filler (and the filler looked ugly); so it is going to be gloss black!

Members exafro Posted July 22, 2012 Members Share Posted July 22, 2012 Got a pretty good deal on this MIM from CL the other day: I also have a partscaster with a Mighty Might neck, Squier body and a whole bunch of GFS parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members telephant Posted July 22, 2012 Members Share Posted July 22, 2012 I've been known to play a Strat occasionally. I've said it before and I will say it again, Strats are the workhorse of guitars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Riffraff12571 Posted July 22, 2012 Members Share Posted July 22, 2012 I don't have a huge collection but I have variety, Gibby Les Paul Standard, Ibanez RG520QSB, Ovation Legend and the MIA Ash Deluxe. I've also got a cheap GAX70 that I don't really use that I was going to stick a set of P90s in just for giggles. The ones pictured are all pretty good guitars but my Deluxe has the smoothest neck I've ever felt on any guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members StevePage Posted July 22, 2012 Members Share Posted July 22, 2012 Mine is a CIJ 68 Reissue Strat. I just got it back from the work shop after having the fretboard radius flattened to a 12". Refretted with 6000 size frets, Graphite Nut and locking Sperzel Tuners. It now plays exactly how I've always wanted it to. The guitar resonates so much better too.
