My wife asked what I wanted for Xmas, and I told her a Strat. She said ok, and I found this one for sale around the corner. It’s a 2011 MIM in my new favorite Strat color, Champagne Sparkle. Stock aside from the tortoise guard.
She was gone for work when I got home with it, so I took the opportunity to wax the board, polish the frets, and restring it before asking if I have to wait for Xmas to have it, lol.
The other part of the gift is better pickups, but the stock ceramics really don’t sound bad. Might roll with these awhile and see if I feel like changing them. Otherwise, it has a chunkier neck than I expected (yay) with zero wear on the neck, board; or frets. It’s pretty light, my PRS is a little over 8lbs and this feels lighter.
