This heavy mod Fender Custom Shop Strat has been my main guitar for quite a long time. It's just that I invested too much on this cat to take it with me everywhere I gig. I mean, I would not be able to reconstruct in case of theft. Has 3-piece body and v-shaped neck just like Eric Clapton. It's not a Relic but is with normal wear and tear over twenty years adding a nice aged appearence to it. Yeah, I like how an aged lacquer face looks. What makes it a real "one of a kind" is the pickup configuration it has: Bartolini V90s, Seymour Duncan Little 59, Bartolini V90s, Seymour Duncan JB from neck to bridge.

I traded in all the BOSS stomps together to make it 4 grand. All my music sample is made out of this keyboard without any external recorder/ synth. As a matter of fact, those recordings were from my Berklee days where I was exploring the world of composition first in my lifetime. It is still my main keyboard only with its MIDI functions. Though still there is a big enthusiasts' community of this key, I should admit it sounds and looks obsolete today, and if you wish to have the equivalent synthesis, you can have it installed on your PC: Korg has released a software bundle called Legacy Collection which includes its Wave Station, M1 syn...
This is the virtual synth/efx that sums up to nearly 6 to 7 grands if you'll get the hardware version of them at their MSRP back in 10 years. Today, it is just 200 dollars as I earlier informed. It comes with a dongle/iLok that may impose issues if you have installed this in your laptop to bring it over to your recording session, but you left your key back home!!
