TheSteven 1,698 Posted February 15 I've always wanted a strat - this is probably as close as I'm going to get for a while... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was tempted but I'm building a Warmoth Strat tele hybrid baritone so I got to put my money into that as just *one* of the two pickups is nearly $200 all by itself lol (Fralin) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was considering the white one but they were out of stock at the time. I'm hoping that it really feels like a strat. According to one of the videos on it, the fretboard has the same radius as a Les Paul (flatter vs rounder). Guess I'll find out when it arrives. The other thing I'm curious about is the pickups. While I'm going to check them out and try to get a feel for them - I've already got a Fishman Fluence Stratocaster Loaded Pickguard to drop in**, been itchin' to use it. Picked it up a couple of years ago for a strat clone upgrade project that I abandoned when I found out that the guitar was off scale making my upgrade parts useless.**LOL - yeah I know, I'm dropping in parts that cost 4x what I paid for the guitar. If I love the pickups but hate the guitar might have to get a real Strat. Edited February 16 by TheSteven Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FWIR the prices on these guitars have varied, bouncing from $99 to $129, though possibly maybe more. I don't recall the price hitting the $80 range though.
