1999 Fender American Deluxe Strat

The roller nut is not my personal favorite but it makes it super easy to switch back and forth between various gauge strings. Mods I wanted to bring out more of the character of the guitar, so I added Lundgren pickups.

I really like the neck and middle pickups for getting that chime and fatness you hear on songs like Hey joe or hear my train a comin. Through a beefy marshall or Twin reverb this thing just oozes musicality. I personally loved
