Members SnoMan97 Posted May 22, 2009 Members Share Posted May 22, 2009 I traded away my beloved MIM Strat last summer and have missed it dearly. I have been gasing for one ever since. I decided to trade or sell my Reverend Jetstream to get another Strat. A fellow forumite traded me his 2007 Highway One Strat for my Rev. She was just delivered to my office by the little brown truck. This guitar is essentially new. It still has the plastic on the p/g and trem cover. Not a mark on it. Very happy so far and I can't wait to get home to plug her in. Sorry for the crappy cell phone pic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Doctor Morbius Posted May 22, 2009 Members Share Posted May 22, 2009 EXCELLENT!! Damn glad to have you back! If you can gel with the huge frets on her and the hot pups in her you're going to fall in love. The back of the neck is silky smooth. Time for some skin! Dohhhh! forgot you are at work! Maybe later.

Thanks Doc. Glad to be back. The frets I like. I figured I could change the pups if I don't like 'em. The neck is really nice. I almost forgot how comfy Strats are. As for the skin...let it fly. My office is small and all male. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two things about the Highway 1: 1) do NOT polish it to a shine. Let it occur naturally, and 2) don't screw with the finish on the back of the neck. It's perfecto as is! Damn glad to have you back, man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the finish, I love the matte finish on the Hwy Ones. Some people hate it but I find it very cool. I agree about the neck as well. Perfect as is.

Members Railfanespee Posted May 23, 2009 Members Share Posted May 23, 2009 HNGD! How do you like the pickups? There's a lot of hate for them in general, but I think they are great for what they are. If you want to play a SSS strat with fairly high levels of gain, this is the guitar to do it on. I don't know how much gain (if any) you use, but I haven't found a bad tone yet with my 07 Hwy 1 (3TSB/Maple fretboard) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Doctor Morbius Posted May 23, 2009 Members Share Posted May 23, 2009 It's one of my very favorite pictures. I have to make my usual public service announcement. People, please spay and neuter your pets! They'll stink up the house a lot less. P.S. I know this Tom doesn't belong to anyone on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to change the strings too. They look like the original Fender Bullets that came with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
