Got these the last few days.
First two are custom bodies with Mighty Mite necks and Seymour Duncan pickups. Third one is a MIM Fender Strat. For those that don't play guitar, Mighty Mite to guitarists is sorta like Parts Express is to the home audio guys.

I really like the Maple neck Strat with Semour Duncan Hot rail pickups. I bet she rips.
I would like to pick one up exactly like that but maybe a solid black pick guard.Dan

Nice.
2 of my 3 aren't really worth photos, but still fun to play
For reference, my lefties, I have a Starfire six string fretless bass
( 38" neck - wow )
A Vantage X-77 Avenger ( electric fake o caster )
and my acoustic Ibanez, is the nicest of the lot.
If I played more often ( and a better player too :>0 ), I would buy better, really nice yours are though.Onkyo TX-NR636

They look great! Anyone a fan of Frusciante and Red Hot Chili Peppers? I love his sunburst 62' strat with the rosewood neck its beautiful
-
Congrats! Those are some beauties. Play them well and often!
I'm more of a Les Paul guy myself, but would love to get a really nice Strat one of these days... -
that mexi strat is a looker! always loved the oversized headstock. and that tele is classic.
nice purchases!
I'm a big fender fan myself, although i'm partially obligated since i have a relative who is an electrical engineer at fender
hahaha design is where science and art break even. -
Strats are the best playing guitars on the market today. You can basically play any kind of music with one depending on how it's setup. Currently I'm on the prowl to get into a Charvel So cal model which is basically a Fender Strat Hot rodded.

I've got a pair of the aluminum neck basses, one fretted, one fretless. There's no comparison to their later guitars; the sustain is unbelievable, and the overall fit & finish is way nicer.
For the guitars, I don't think they made any with a trem system and if you want single-coil pickups, look elsewhere. Also, you're a little limited in the set-up since you can't adjust the curve of the neck. However, their basses are some of my favorites of anything I've played.Gallo Ref 3.1 : Bryston 4b SST : Musical fidelity CD Pre : VPI HW-19

unc, they never made a lummie with a locking tremolo like the Floyd Rose. But they did make them with standard Fender style and fixed bridges.
One of my favorites from that time period...

Learned something new. All the ones I've come across in person have been the earlier ones with the fixed bridges.
One day, I will own one of their 8 string basses.Gallo Ref 3.1 : Bryston 4b SST : Musical fidelity CD Pre : VPI HW-19
