Gosh. This brings back memories. I saw you play your HM Strats years ago in Spartanburg, SC. TBDM played through the entire Nocturnal album, and you were phenomenal!
Brandon Ellis.. aka guitar god, brings us another masterful performance. This time managing to give his viewers blue balls because the video is only 56 seconds in duration. Blast!
Magnificent and face melting playing. Perfect tone. You were amazing back then and now you are otherworldly. Thank you for posting your guitar wizardry for us all to enjoy.
I have this same Fender HM Strat from the '80's and will never sell it. Such a great playing neck and has wonderfully large fretwire. Has a nice flat fingerboard radius that is slightly wider than most fingerboards, and the neck thickness is incredibly thin. Fender should do an "anniversary" release of these for a year or two. BTW, sweet vibrato, Brandon - very wide and musical. Cool jam!
Iain, it does seem to be easy to bend strings on this guitar, but still not quite as easy as bending on a Les Paul or SG. BTW... the originals, like mine, have a one-piece neck. In other words, no fingerboard is added, the neck IS the fingerboard. And I actually like it this way, feels really good. If you have longer fingers I think you would like this neck, frets, and string bend-ability.
Dude that is awesome. I have that same strat from 2020 (not sure if yours is the reissue like mine) but I don’t know if it will ever get played like that lol very well done. Nice strat brother happy shredding just subscribed 🤘
By the way, saw my doctor. I'm getting an MRI. He thinks I have a torn labrum (back of my shoulder). Hope I can recover if that's the case. Aspire to play like you each and every day, buddy.
my man straight spanked that spacebar

That was incredible!! I heard some Ethan Brosh style minor 9th sweeps in there. Very beautiful and drenched with emotion!
That was rad, man! Great playing!
Killer.. Love the tone. That Super 3 pickup just rocks.. I've had a couple HM strats over the years.. Keep rocking man..

They did for this year and it has a Floyd Special and still costs 1300. Like wtf
I understand the scale length is 25inches, slightly shorter than a standard strat. Does it feel better on the finger stretches? The HMs look great.
