Wow, cool guitars... the finish on the Strat looks matt? Very cool... I love that colour. BUT, that Tele is BRILLIANT!!! I AM British... so, apparently I CAN say that!!

Man, if I was british, I'd call it f-ing brilliant.

I am, so I will. That is f-ing brilliant. Love it.

Uber cool... and way unique too! I'll bet you're the only person in the world with a guitar like that - considering colour, pickup arrangement, pickguard, model, etc.

i like the angle of the pickups.... the reverse angle on the bridge PU must make it sound more like a Hendrix inspired tone.... the shorter bar has the David Gilmour action.... The Lipstick Tubes i'm sure have sort of SRV thing about them.... something for everyone in one axe...

Definitely. I just saw an SRV concert where he had a custom made guitar with two knobs and the lipstick pickups for most of the show. Sounded great.

normally i'm not a fan of Shell guards on strats.... somehow i love them on teles but not strats as much.... but on that colour of HW1 it works...

That strat is incredible! Lipstick pickups rock, plain and simple.
