Dr Simon i understand fully what your first two paragraphs say, i play guitar (Strats and Tele's) im not just a random person chosing to study the strat because they look good. My study of the product includes full details of design and manufacture including variation on wood, magnetic materials used in the pickups, how many turns on the coils, all that stuff you said and more. This questionaire is basically just to boost my marks, primary research as they call it, as in my study i have stated the fender strat is condisered a classic design, as it is by many, but i need people's opinions to quote to justify my statement rather than write it is a classic design because Guitar magazine says so and i cant just make up quotes because i must provide proof of all of my research when i hand it in.

thanks for you feedback though
