Well Wolf, if I really wanted a slim fast neck with a rock solid dive-bar mechanism from hell I'd just buy a Jackson. Come to think of it there's a great one for half the cost of a Strat.
Hey Wolf! Thanks for jogging my feeble brain about fixation on brand stuff. There's a Dinky in oil finish for $300 that's smokin hot! If I'm going to continue to play I might as well be comfortable right? Thanks again for the reality check.

Of all the guitars I have played recently, only the imported Jackson's and Schecter's were quiet and had 100% accurate setup right off the hangar....
Resisting the Resistor is futile...you will be assimilated by the Treble Bleed Borg...
Good eye, Don...I posted that one because it was the best image.
I use 220k on bridge pickups and on Stratocasters, with the neck pickup wired "wide-open," I use a 270k....
Yes, but the bleed cost me about 59 cents....

That, of course, is a fair point.
The 270k on a wide open Strat neck pickup just sounds amazing....I'm running a 10k on my EMG 81 in my Schecter

The more I think about it the more I'm now inclined to forget about the Strat all toghther. $650 with the tax opposed to $325 with tax Strat to Dinky. Not hard to figure that I'm paying a whole lot for a name. Nope, I'm going for the Jackson with 24 frets on a near flat board and a Rose in the rear to wail on. Had a nice Jackson Dinky back in '94 that was a killer guitar. Sold it only out of desperate times. Got rid of the wife that spent every dime we had and now it ain't that desperate anymore.

Best decision ever...
