Hmmm.... I might be able to help with that. I have a single WRHB made by Jess Loureiro that may potentially become surplus to requirements.

You would do well to take a good look at Tony's. I'm in no way a strat fan, but that one almost had me converted.
I can relate to this - when you find a Strat that works for you, don't let it slip away.

*Leers in your direction* Interesting... Definitely know what you're thinking if you decide it is surplus! Maybe WRHB + Jazzmaster PU could be a cool combination or something...

I have a set of Jazzmaster sized WRHBs made by the same dude in my Jazzmaster at the moment, and they sound awesome.

Currently thinking of down grading my amp, I can't see myself ever playing live so there is just no need for a 30W amp for home use. I currently have it setup with a volume pedal in the effects loop set to about 10%. It sounds good, better than when the volume was turned down to 0.1 anyway. I was going to buy this https://preview.trademe.co.nz/marketpla ... 1256981594 but I was out of the house and forgot to bid at the last minute. A separate amp and cab appeals for the extra flexibility.

I once had an old Westone Spectrum like that. All black with red pickups. Cool...
