The guitar looks great, time to change your username to "sunburstlespaulblues'
BurstPaulBlues - my friends coined that when I showed them the pics
Personally I think Lazyboy may be more appropriate, after playing Strats for years, it seems this guitar does half the work
As you get older, you appreciate the Lazyboy more
But if you want a workout, theres always upper fret access....
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

I started on Fenders, retired to Gibsons...all for that reason. My office-toned hands can't bend a Fender scale anymore.

Try tuning down a half step on the Strat if you havenβt, lots of fun!

Jazzmaster is the real answer. Slinky with the shallow string break-angle over the bridge.

Thanks for the kind words! Got it plugged into the Soldano today for some very 90s era Moore-ish tones. Fun!

Agreed. Nice playing and great tones on a beautiful guitar. The perfect instrument to coax some Moore & Kossoff licks out of

Awesome to the Power of 10!
When faced with quality, I recognise it every time.
