Members ashasha Posted May 18, 2010 Members Share Posted May 18, 2010 He's not gay. And 99.9% of the people who play superstrats aren't.I'll tell you what, Valerie Bertinelli in her prime...jesus. Hell she's even looking quite nice on those JC commercials. That man is definitely not gay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That man is definitely not gay. he was dressed up as a gay guy, though, and that's the imagery I associate with superstrats. and for the record I'm not anti-gay in the least... just in case in my rabble rousing anyone thought otherwise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Nephilim-777 Posted May 19, 2010 Members Share Posted May 19, 2010 When I think Super Strat, I'm thinking about Wayne Charvel's work in the late 70's and early 80's. Too me a Super Strat was nothing more than a single humbucker bridge, volume knob, OFR, Dunlop 6100 frets, and a flat fretboard radius. No pointy stuff (yet), just hot-rodded Stratocasters.The next evolution was the Baretta's, Sololists', RG's, etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Ratae Corieltauvorum Posted May 19, 2010 Moderators Share Posted May 19, 2010 About the only answer I can agree with, a superstrat for me is differentiated from Strats and Fat Strats by being HSS, and not a lot else really although a 12" radius fretboard and above would be cool, but ultimately a "fast" neck, and med jumbos or above Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
