cabba2203 Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 I'd go for the amp +1 on the amp. Only 300 made. Rare. You can get a custom shop Fender any another day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FennRx Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 neither. spend the money on a boutique amp. but i am biased: i'm not a big fan of fender amps. or guitars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EVOL! Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 I am not just saying this because I hate Strats - My vote is for the amp with the hope that a handwired, modern Fender will sound better than what they are selling now. Just find the tone mushy*. My Silvertone 1484 (poor man's black face Twin Reverb) blows it out of the water. Having a great amp is key. You can make the cheapest piece of driftwood sound killer with a great amp. Plug a $3k beauty into a crappy solid state practice amp and you'll get crappy sound. *Been thinking lately about selling my 65 Deluxe Reverb reissue again, but I need to have some type of replacement for jamming at home.

Murph Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 I voted amp. I'm a tube amp freak and that one is pretty cool. While I gigged a Strat for a few years I just don't like the thin sound. They are comfy, but I just don't like the sound with the vibrato, and don't like the hardtail design........ Amp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Californiaman Posted July 9, 2010 Author Share Posted July 9, 2010 Well, I'm leaning towards the amp myself. It's 2K and in Boise, Idaho. The guitar is a beauty. I like the fact that the guitar has so many appointments. Bone nut, reverse polarity middle pickup, aged plastic parts. It really looks killer. I'm torn between the two.

djroge1 Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Amps come and go but a guitar says you love you forever!! Unless you find THE amp that has the the sound you have been searching for all your guitar playing life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChanMan Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 +1 on the amp. Only 300 made. Rare.You can get a custom shop Fender any another day. This. A Strat is a Strat, but a custom amp is a rare commodity.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocky4 Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Tough choice until I saw the strat had an alder body. I'm an ash man. I'd get the amp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
