How's this for a Strat tone - maybe the best you'll hear ?

Apols if you've seen this b4, but it's flippin' tasty

It's cool but I'm way more into that bass tone

Drummer Ben gets so into it he loses his specs half way through lol

sorry - but for me the best Strat tone(s) is Little Wing - Wind Cries Mary - I know there are a host of options but very hard to argue against these 2 tracks by jimi

Of course you are correct, I've over egged it...lest we forget

It's OK but it would've been so much better with a large headstock 70s Strat.

Is it me, or does nearly every Strat player go for that farty, driven neck pick-up sound (sorry - 'tone') these days?

I'm not a fan of it at all....

Because according to that other thread 70s big peghead Strats are the mutt's nuts.
I don't actually go along with that. I can't stand them.

Maybe my butt does hurt but I've got a cream for that.
Unfortunately even the best cream in the world won't shrink a freakishly large headstock on a Strat down to a normal sized one.
