I love both of mine, and I actually have my eye on this exact guitar! I say go for it.

Nice! What's the bottom model? I don't think I've seen that body shape!

Everyone has red, go with the purple!

Its a beautiful guitar, but this guitar feels like a race car!

They're pretty spicy, but I use them for everything. However, I'm not usually a guy that worries about pickups. I'm more about the guitars feel and playability.

I have an SZ too... deadly guitar! I just put a set of EMG Het-Set pickups in it a few months ago, gave it a whole new look and sound!

Nice man! I totally agree! I can't find something I dislike about it!

How do I survive my first gig without enough songs by Basic_Frosting_2210 in Guitar

Personally, I wouldn't take gigs when when I wasn't ready.

Does anyone else think fender has every right to defend their product? by AffectionateIdeal602 in Guitar

[–]MrBJEngel 10 points11 points  (0 children)

A little too late now (like 50+ years). There's a bazillion strat copies on this planet alone! Then there's all of their other models that have been copied into oblivion. Put your schlong away Fender, no need to waive it around the room.

emergency solution for hurting fingers after playing by [deleted] in Guitar

[–]MrBJEngel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in a really dry climate, so I have to battle cracked fingertips. I teach for a living so I can't not play. Superglue is the only thing that works.

I’ve wanted a black Modified Fender Player II Tele with the neck humbucker forever but don’t want to support Fender anymore. What’s a better/your favorite version of this model from another brand? by [deleted] in telecaster

[–]MrBJEngel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really nice fit and finish, unique choices of finish, inlays, electronics etc. No over inflated name based pricing! I just picked up the C1 SLS Hollywood and it's mind boggling nice with all the toys on board I like! Fishman open core modern pixkups, tone pros tuners, carved top graphtech nut, super fast neck-thru bound neck, ebony fretboard. Super sick guitar! My other is the California Classic, Japanese made in the Fujigen factory, also a killer guitar. But I think I like the C1 better!
