    Smokin' Stevie tribute Lemmo. I remember when the 1st VH record dropped and a future rocker shared it with us. No one had ever heard anything quite like it. Blew us all away.

    Great job. I like the late 70’s strats. They have their own vibe. Keep up the great work guys!

    Killer sounding. Seeing that guitar brought back some memories. My first Fender was a Lead I in the same red and black color scheme. Bought it new when I graduated high school in 1981.

    The guitar was played often w out a shirt. The acid in sweat eats the paint. When not played bare, in a T shirt since the top is even more damaged from the naked arm.

  • @FGg503
    @FGg503 2 года назад +2

    I have a current Strat in the same colour format because I wanted something a bit different. I also have an original '79 Strat in an early vintage cherry/sienna sun burst. Very heavy solid ash body. It has a great tone!

  • @soulagent79
    @soulagent79 2 года назад +6

    I think this is from the 'international colors'-series, when Fender brought back a lot of finishes they hadn't done for years.

      No this is wine or sometimes called midnight wine ( translucent deep red over ash)
      Only used for a few years in the late 70s along with mocha , black , natural , sunburst , blonde , Antigua

    I've got the same guitar but with a hardtail bridge. I kept it but modified it. Tone is awesome now. It's got an amazing funk-friendly fingerboard ( the reason I kept it!)
    Weighs a ton..spent a lot of money on chiropractors!

    “A little bit of wear”. Translate “gouges and scratches down to bare wood”. Sounds pretty good though.

    I bought an identical strat, new in 79, when I was in Germany. It was a piece of crap. The neck felt good, but I didnt know much about guitars at the time. It had so many problems. My MIJ 1986 Squier Strat was a far nicer guitar. Go figure.
