I’m trying to free up space and cash before baby no.3 arrives in Jan, but I also want a Super Strat.
I have a lovely Ibanez SV5470, but the radius is a bit flat for me and I always catch my pick on the middle pickup.
Think I’m going to sell my custom shop 52 heavy relic and Cabronita, (neither is played as much as my vintage junior) and probably the Ibanez too.
However, if I chop in the Ibanez it’s only if I can get something decent quality close to my Mr Uberfussy specs that I just don’t know where to find in one guitar.
Any ideas which superstrat closest fits this spec?
2 humbuckers, definitely not HSS or HSH
3 way switch
chunky neck with 12inch radius
big frets
Good quality non locking trem
oil finish
light weight. 7.5lbs or less
great quality, will have to make me want to pick it up as much as my Feline lion, custom shop strat and vintage SG Junior
Comments
on the list!
other suggestions welcome too
luxxtone
Gotoh trem
Jumbo ss frets
305mm radius (12 inch)
20.5 to 22.5mm neck (wizard necks are 17/18mm to 19/20mm thick)
Satin and oil finish
How much for the SV?
I already have one with a two point trem that holds tuning really well, but the single coils sound too good to take out.
