the reverse slant on the bridge pup is a must for me now. i also have a 47 cap on the tone instead of a 22. the superswitch has normal settings on it, except instead of having middle only on pos 3, it is neck/bridge. another mod i like to do to strats, is, bend the trem arm down, so its closer to the strings and cut it off at the bend. its shorter and fits right in your hand when you want to fingerpick or do surfy stuff.

Holy f-ing dog crap that is nice looking!!!!!! Jeez dude, that is smoking hot!

OK, I have Daphnie blue/tortise gas right now!!!! I have it really badly!

How do lipsticks sound in comparision to regular singes?
 
Re: my new lipstick tube strat.... i better hold on to this one.

weaker, clearer, brighter, thinner..... sounds bad right? NO. they are not for everyone, and not for every style of music. the notched pos's and neck/bridge tones are to die for. its fun for clean, delayed, chorus, phased, and trem stuff.

you should try them.
 
Re: my new lipstick tube strat.... i better hold on to this one.

I really like it. I'd love to dedicate one strat to lipsticks. Now you've got me jonesing to do that with my silverburst for awhile.

What's the exact model of that guitar? It looks like an American 70's reissue neck and a 60s body. ??

And that tele is sick! I want that one too!

I believe that's a Highway 1.

Slick lookin' guit-fiddle you got going on there, congrats!

That strat is pretty sick, but your Telecaster is absolutely KILLIN IT bro. i don't think i've ever seen a guitar so sick in my entire career.
