I miss the silver sparkle from the previous model, but yeah, this one is good looking too.

 

[Artie]

That's sweet. And not even outrageously priced. I, personally, would rather do my own "ageing", but not a big deal.

 

[Mincer]

I wonder if it is as light as his last sig model, which weighed about 4.5 lbs.

 

[St_Genesius]

Probably. It's the same paulownia sandwiched by... Crap, now I've forgotten.... Cedar? Spruce?

Spruce.

 

[ItsaBass]

If it wasn't a Road Worn, and had a more conservative guard, it'd be sharp.

I'd also prefer Custom Shop Eldred Esquire wiring over a "Secret Agent" in the front position.

 

[Mincer]

If it was the same weight as his old model, which it looks like it might be, I will give it a go. Now I want to see a similar Strat, too.

You can't see it in this picture, but it's black sparkle...

That pick plate.. when I wore ties it was mostly paisley ties lol.. shame i dont play good enough to justify that purchase.. and i'm on the fence about the aging done to it, i liken it to buying pre-torn/ripped jeans.

 

[St_Genesius]

I know. I still miss the silver.

Buy a used Squier Tele, and install the neck pickup and an Esquire pickguard. You are good to go.
