heh heh heh... "misty eyed" =)

Kind of funny that you say that because I own a Strat and that's exactly what people do...
"ooh, you own a strat, you MUST be good" then I have to break the news to them that I do, in fact, suck ROYALLY!!! but I have a good time trying and I must admit, I've picked up everything short of the mop in the music store and I still like the Strat...

As far as necks go, back in the day the super slim Ibanez necks were it but now that I've grown out of the "slipknot" days and started to expand what I listen to and try to play, I like the C neck that the strat has as opposed to the speed necks of the jacksons or Ibanez's....

I think we're back to the personal preference battle eh?
