sjl200 Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Wow I really like it. Great catch ,if you're going to buy before playing Sweetwater's the ticket,jmo. Fantastic finish..... To me it... Kinda looks like it was just pulled out of a fire and some how you managed to extinguish the still burning flames. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparquelito Posted September 17, 2017 Author Share Posted September 17, 2017 Congrats and have fun Saturday rockin' out with that thang. [thumbup] The Strat had a great outdoor debut yesterday afternoon. She sounded and played great, and we broke her in right. A great crowd, good food, ice cold beers, and perfect weather. The hosts had roasted a pig in the ground for 20 hours, and man oh man, such good barbecue. It doesn't get much better than that! Here is Bob the drummer, chowing-down, using his snare drum as a dinner tray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megafrog Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 Fender came out with some sandblasted ash Strats and Teles back in 2014 as well. I have the Strat in blue and it is a great guitar. The finish is definitely different from most guitars out there. Here is mine: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megafrog Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 I think I like the finish on yours more than my blue one. That is one amazing looking guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaiser Bill Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 Coming late to the party, but one question...is it barn wood?? That seems to be the rage in certain areas...maybe the big boys are jumping on the band wagon?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's very sexy. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That seems to be the rage in certain areas...maybe the big boys are jumping on the band wagon?? No, it's just an ash body, sprayed in sunburst, then sandblasted, then hit again with darker sunburst and black highlights, and probably lightly lacquered over. https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/StratSBR3TSB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retired Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 I really love your strat Sparky! It's different and the textured wood just does something. It's beautiful! So how does she sound? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
