It's one thing when Fender sponsors you, but another when you have to take an endorsement deal from jowls and male pattern baldness.
    Fender will make out like a bandit on endorsing him. What you don't know is how the Worship community are the most clickish cork sniffin bunch of gear hounds on the planet. I know because I have been playing in the Worship community almost exclusively for 20 + years now. Terrifyingly good players who are super down to earth in my circles but in the overall community---. just sayin they make groups like the Gear Page look absolutely pedestrian in cork sniffing chops on most of the big worship sites! So get a big endorser in that click and it's a GOLD mine!

        You think that was cringe worthy this is his home Church Christmas service! GREAT music but that stage show in a Church gives me the willies and I'm a WORSHIP player!! !

            Re: Lincoln Brewster Stratocaster

            I find the idea of people being elitist about expensive guitar equipment while playing music praising a man who preached the explicit opposite of both their attitude and spending habits....extraordinarily ironic.


            That being said I have noticed a disproportionate amount of people mentioning playing at church on guitar forums like these, so clearly it is a real phenomenon.

              The only problem is what has been displayed in this thread. I used to play on worship team, but left after getting fed up with this elitist nonsense and nitpicking about the appearance or style of another person. How utterly stupid and childish. You would figure Christians would be beyond that, and it embarrasses me to be counted among such things. Walking away from that garbage was the best thing I ever did.

                This thread has become one of those "bash Nirvana" threads that Clint keeps inadvertently creating, except instead of clulessly bashing the stereotypes of grunge, its CCM.
                You will never understand How it feels to live your life With no meaning or control And with nowhere left to go You are amazed that they exist And they burn so bright

                  You can bash the music all you want, but keep the religion or attacks on other forum members for playing it out of the thread.

                    Agree with you on the paradox and many of us on the worship side see it also and are disturbed by it. I'm my circles it's not that way and frankly is why you see so many guys like me who are primarily worship players on sites like this one instead of just hanging in the worship clicks. We are players first just like most of you guys here but have our own specific challenges in our playing environments. We are in a different world from a normal club player. Our world is more like being in the band at a Broadway musical production or the backing band on something like American Idol. Many of us have to run silent stages and in many places you walk in with an amp for a set you better prepare for a war with the sound man. Many of the guys I play with have spent years on the road, a few with some of the biggest name bands on the planet. We have gotten older settled down have families. Many like myself almost offed ourselves with excesses then came back to faith and our roots so we now play in Churches because our faith saved our lives. We ask simply for respect as just other players who work in a different environment than some of you do.

                      Feel you and trust me the entire community is not like that far far from it but I have absolutely seen what you speak of. Sorry you have been through that as so have I and it's not cool. PS I'm the guy who at times plays stuff like a Pearl Pink 1990 Carvin X 220 through a Boogie in a Church on Sunday Morning so--.

                        I feel totally un-guilty about nit-picking this guys fashion style regardless of what religion he is; it sends all sorts of 'signals' when a grown man dresses a way only a pre-schooler thinks looks edgy and cool (the underlying assumption must be he knows he is dressing for that crowd.) Image does matter if your 'image' is always looking like you're about to expose yourself in public. Even at its most innocent, it smacks of utter dishonesty when grandpa dresses like the star of an elementary school musical about an emo kid from 2005 . Basically, you can't expect to go outside looking like that without everyone choosing to stand rather than sit next to you at the bus stop.

                        ...I do like the guitar, but I'd rather have a Dick Dale Strat if it came down to it in that idiom; already have a gold Strat anyway.

                            Being one who works in the Worship community that image being portrayed of our community does not set well with me at all. It's not what we represent and a big national artist doing that taints all of us.
                            Contrast that with this Brazilian girl who is also a worship leader and is engaged to a very close friend of mine. I have played with Raquel when she was in the States a few times and this is the type of image she promotes with what she does as a contrast.

                              Not too much different than a theoretical Clapton with a compound radius. Noiseless singles, mid boost, V neck, maple board.

                              I'm into old school radius and frets, but that is a nice complement of pickups.

                                Pretty much spot on. The build quality to me is my beef with the guitar as it just felt no better to me than a say a good MIM Strat. Expect more at a 2K Price point and get it in spades with say the lower level Suhr or Anderson guitars for just a little more $.
