Right on Greg!

I posted a great method to setting up that tremelo a while back.
It sure works so if you use it and it gives ya trouble you may want
to give it a go. ( if you've never messed with one)

Like that red and black. Congrats!

I've been playing it since I got home... well, I had to stop to eat.
Gonna put new strings on it tonight. I love it!
 

 
WHY??? 

BECAN perhaps? 




Greg, nothing like the smell and feel of a new guitar to get the creative muse flowing.   It looks good. Enjoy.....!!!

Rain, this guitar is much heavier than my brother's Squire. Kinda surprised me, it's been so long since I played a Strat other than his.
 
Craigb, it's good that you can pull it out and play with it any time you want. I went the opposite direction from you. Lived in a 1,200 SF house, now in a 110 SF room. I really don't have room for another guitar (5 now), so I bought one of those guitar-hanging brackets. If it works, I might hang them all.
Unfortunately, it's a mobile home and the only interior wall is right over my bed. So if it fails, I might get a rude awakening!
 
Thanks, Mike, I will!
 
So get one, Marius.
Say, did you ever get in touch with that girl?
 
Spacey, thanks. The tremolo will probably never get used. When the guitar was hanging on their wall, there was no trem on it. A lot of the guitars were missing them. The salesguy said they often disappear.
I didn't really want/need it, but the guy was going to so much trouble trying to find it I had to let him.
He couldn't find the correct one (black-tipped) so he gave me a white-tipped trem arm instead.
 
Reece and Herb, there was becan involved.

Greg... similar thing happened to me.... I simply stopped in while shopping for a laptop for my daughter next door.... I needed to pick up some new acoustic guitar strings...... 


I ended up with a new (to me) Taylor to put those strings on......  same exact store..... must be something in the water round here....

Hmm...  I don't recall it sounding that dirty when I posted it originally...
 
Small rooms suck (I moved from a 9'x10' one).  You have to be very creative and willing to compromise on what others consider normal (I could barely fit between the bed and the closet so I could have more room on the other side).  *Sigh*

That guitar looks sweet Greg. And glad you got a good deal on it!

I've always wanted to try one of those Humbucker style strats, but I've never seen one lefty.

Ok, if you say so:)


I haven't been in touch with her yet. I've been so busy that I keep forgetting things:P I'll PM her!
