2237 + 1 = 2238

I've owned many strats over the years, including a Custom Shop strat, an Eric Johnson, many more. I sold all the rest, and this is the only strat I'll ever own the rest of my life. A 2000 Deluxe, just perfect... and my wife loves it too, its her favorite color.

My first Fender was this MIM 50's style Daphne Blue Strat. I liked it so well, I thought I'd try an MIM Tele-- now I have three!

Moderators, correct me if I'm wrong, but we're at 2246 now.

Anyway, here's 2247 and 2248. The one in sonic blue is a Blacktop HH Stratocaster, and the satin charcoal one is an FSR HSH Stratocaster (very rare cousin of the HSH Blacktop Stratocaster).



The Blacktop has been modded with a bone nut, a barrel-style string tree, and I swapped in Elixir coated 9's; it stays in tune wonderfully now.

Also, on the asthetics side of things, I changed the switch tip to a white one, changed the inlay dots to white, swapped the Blacktop knobs with the chrome barrel ones off my Precision Bass Special, and I also added a set of Fender chrome strap locks.

I started buying parts to fix the Saga kit then decided not to bother... and ordered the parts to put this together instead. GFS special.

It looked like this for about five minutes:


But then I got some Mean 90s so it looks like this now

I grew up playing them, fit the body so confortable, then I became accustomed to the Trem use. Rest is History. I like Teles also through.
