well spoted LightingBoy there sure was fret buzz on that fret ,I have my action real low and we play a lot of rock so it is not so noticeable,But with such a clean sound like this it stands out like a sore thumb.
Alnico pickups have the best strat sound, but the 60Hz noise is so much quieter than my 6-year-old Squier Affinity Strat! I checked out an American Standard Strats a week ago; black body, white pickguard, maple neck and fretboard, gloss, my dream guitar but not enough money. My IDEAL dream guitar would be the same, only a left handed guitar re-strung righty and the strap button on the lower horn cutout, to emulate my Idol: the Great Jimi Hendrix!

@onarheim We stick together on that. I hate the idea of these big companies selling relic style guitars. It just makes the world more fake. Can't someone just wear their guitar's look over time the natural way? It's just a big lie. But, to each his own. It's just my opinion.
Holy shit, for a second there i thought you were playing my strat, the paint is almost the exact same...spent 7 solid hours of sanding and only got half the body done, oh well at least my right arm is buff now
mines "non relic'd", as it were, and paints coming off of it pretty quickly now.
its an 03. that being said, GOOD relic'ing isnt necessarily a bad thing, on the grounds that I will never afford a vintage 60's strat. now, that being said, i can get a relic strat that looks, plays, and most importantly, sounds IDENTICAL to a "real" vintage model.
HAH nothing sounds brighter than my mexican hss start's bridge humbucker. i hate it. Americans have a really......... glassy tone ya know what im saying?
I would get this strat nicely painted by a pro or varnished with a clear coating and I'd forget about relicing, because as awesome as this guitar sounds it looks pitiful aesthetically.
@cowfreak99 when them vox amps are dialed in wright they sound sparkly as fuck. Living in the UK Vox, Orange and marshal are ready available, but I prefer fender amps for clean tones, fender cost more in the UK compared to US as they don't have a UK base, its in holand, but my hot rod deluxe 3 was worth that bit extra as she purse spanky sparkling clean tones and shes easy to dial in.
@cowfreak99 Vox, Orange and marshal are ready available in the UK, but I prefer fender for clean tones, vox dialed in are sparkly as fuck thou. Fender has no base in UK and nearest is holland, so they cost more to buy here comparably to US, but my hot rod deluxe 3 was worth every penny, easy to dial in and she gets the best sparkly spanky clean tones I have heard. I would swapvox, orange and marshal for fender anyday.
marshal are cheaper here compared to the US, but the hot rod deluxe in the US is only like £450 gbp, here in the UK its anyway between £650 and £800 gbp, because of shipping, but if I was to get a £800 marshal 401 that would be £600, and I like the fender better. The overdrive on the HRD 3 is alot tighter than previous versions, its good for soft rock, & to be honest I play country, so having a good clean channel is paramount, wish fender was UK though as I would buy american deluxe guitars lol
