Anyone have one or play one?
Really cool look. Heard they play great from da YouTube.
The American version has the active midboost and lace sensor pickups, master tbx, master volume, and midboost volume.
I have the American built signature model "Buddy Guy" Strat. Mine is from '95, the first year that they were made. The polka dot version was made in Mexico, and had standard pickups. The American version has the active midboost and lace sensor pickups, master tbx, master volume, and midboost volume. I really love mine. It has a vintage soft V neck, and vintage frets( though I changed mine to vintage tall frets). The American version really is the best Strat that I have ever played.
Sounds very similar to the Clapton sig.
It is very similar. The neck is different, and it has an ash body.Sounds very similar to the Clapton sig.

It is a soft V neck, but not as severe as the EC Strat.Is it a different soft V?
It is a soft V neck, but not as severe as the EC Strat.
I am basing my experience with an EC Strat that I played from the early 90s. I am no expert on Clapton strats. But my Buddy Guy Strat has a very comfy neck. I recall feeling uncomfortable with the EC Strat neck.I thought that they EC had evolved to a softer V shape by the time the Buddy Guy came out and that they were the same shape. I know that the current EC neck isn't as severe a V as the original (late 80s/early 90s).
So the Buddy Guy was even "softer" than the current EC neck? I've never gotten to play a USA Buddy Guy; never came across one in person.
