Question: How much crap would I have to take...

[VoidTerraFirma]

I have no dog in the maple/rosewood argument.

I would change the bridge, remove the neck pickup, change the bridge pickup, and get a custom 3 knob plate.

It’s a good bridge, sir.

I prefer the Gotoh Modern Tele bridge. It's a feel thing. There's nothing wrong with the G&L bridge, I just like the Gotoh better.

Why change the bridge? I really like the individual brass saddles.

Oh man... If that Strat had a maple fretboard, it would seriously make my pee pee tingle.

Best strat I've ever owned. It was a special run for Willis Music and they had a Fat Strat in Candy Tangerine that DID have the maple board and matching headstock. Also very hot.

It was sold in the purge to fund my Collings, which is the best acoustic I own so it's a good trade.

No crap from me.

I know you're never selling it, but if you ever decide to sell it, sell it to me.

Everything is for sale at the right price, Andy.

I mean, even I have second thoughts about my Gibson boycott when it comes to that one.

It is very nice, but my boycot stands.

For what's it's worth I got it used from Dave's. No direct financial support to Gibson.

Brand representation. I just can't do it.

I'd know. That's really all that matters.

No, what really matters is that WE all know... wave0

If I cared about the opinions of this forum, I'd be playing a 3 tone burst strat into a tubescreamer.

That would offend me.
