Re: lets see those super strats!!

Awesome!! Im so glad they brought back the pointy stock and that body style!! If only they werent making them backwards... LOL

Haha, good one Rose! I get that all the time.

FWIW, the STs are really balanced guitars. It's such a pleasure to play; great balance and feel. Mine is all maple so it's a little heavy on the shoulder but at least I have a beefy and comfortable strap to help out.

I have the M22SD/M22V pup combo on it (can't praise them enough) and the active electronics module; this guitar will stay stock forever. Throw in the coil splitters and (almost never used) phase switch and I have tones to spare. I play with the control knob at full treble and the pups sound great!

Get you one Rose, I know you are a Carvin fan as well.

I almost didnt even say it as Im sure you've heard it before... but couldnt help myself..

the all maple bright?
Yeah, you are right. Im one of those.... those ... Carvin lovers! ( the crowd GASPs!!) I dont currently have one tho. I love the black one Kherman has too! the last one I had, I shoulda kept.. Was an old DC125. . Got it pretty cheap. Has a single M22SD in it and that thing screamed. I sold it to fund something else and the dude I sold it to rolled in on ebay for about $100 more.. @$!#$!%! Oh well.. I figure one day Ill have one built all decked out. Just dont know what model as I want so many dif ones..

The maple is bright, but I like bright tones. All of my guitars except for my ESP (mahogany) are either maple or alder so I have grown to like those two woods.

The ST Kent has is just killer. His has mahogany wings and neck I believe along with the quilted maple top.

mine: '85 kramer baretta RI

Could you send me a drawing of the baretta with the sizes or a cad picture?

Necro Thread Revival!!!

OK, I'll necro. :-)

[JamesPaul]

I can't find the box with the correct era photos of my "roll your own" which I have since reverted to the original SSS pups. The Sound Room Put a Face with a Name topic has a before any mods pic. For the first change, imagine this with the original white pickguard and a Black JB in the bridge as HSS. Second change was a Zebra pickguard with a single Zebra Distortion in the bridge, a switch to split it, one black volume knob and one white tone knob.



This was Custom/stock/Jazz from around '83 until '98 when it became a test bed.



This is one of those rare positives in 2020.

Necro Thread Revival!!!

Really like this for the "upside down" neck, one of the key purchasing points for my latest was the (when I finally get around to it) post-lefty "upside down reverse headstock"...
