it's a beaut. Other than the guitar store, I haven't seen one that clean in a loooong time. mine's trashed for the most part, at least cosmetically.

I stub my toe... takes a long time to heal... hurts when I tighten my skate, bleeds on my socks.... a general, all around inconvenience

You bought this on E-bay and had it delivered in one day? Wow!

Yeah you know that new fangled air freight thing.
Overnight

Anybody know what efrfect lowering the pick up to flush with the pick guard would do for sound?

Wlfgng · « **Reply #26 on:** March 26, 2004, 07:53:47 PM »

yeah.. much softer and less tone. I.E. thin sounding

in general, set the pickups as close to the strings as you can without causing buzzing and/or 'pulling' on the strings by the magnets in the pickups.

You'll get the fattest sound that way

nice strat.

Less than 24 hours later, I'm very impressed. What was the seller's ebay name? I'd do ebay business with him any day. I hope the seller was a nice guy and paid the priority overnight shipping charges for you...... must have cost a fortune to overnight that baby!

It was bought on the 23thrd and delieverd on the 25th.

Very nice SRV strat,

A nice little anecdote about the SRV strat. One of the last things Stevie did before he died was approve the prototype. He suggested a couple of minor things but overall gave his approval. So what you are holding there is one of the last things Stevie created. Treat her kindly...
