I don't know about you, but my favorite Strat sound is Hendrix on Little Wing (real original, I know). So, this Greg Fessler-built Stratocaster tickled my ear drums, because it NAILS that sounds. The lows are round, the midrange is throaty, and the trebles are full of brilliant, chiming, sparkling overtones. The mids become quackier as you move towards the bridge position and more sonorous and broad as you approach the neck pickup. It's very articulate, and it has lots of sustain, too! Though it nails Hendrixian sounds, this guitar sounds so classic that it will work wonders in any situation that calls for iconic Stratocaster sounds. Anyone that digs chime-y vintage Strat tones will love this guitar!

I like all 5 positions but that BMQ (bridge/middle quack) always enhances my love for Strats no matter how it's played or who plays it and G-Kochran never fails to do it well...VERY well at that!
The headstock looks really cool
Yes it does!
the master.....greg is awesome and the guitar is outstanding
To paraphrase Paul Gilbert, I first wanted to be Eddie Van Halen, then Randy Rhoads, then Eric Johnson. Now I want to be Greg Koch.
This sounds amazing
It says your comment is 3 months old. This video is from today. Spooky
Wow , we may have a time traveler on our hands!
Hey, don't try to con us with your sneaky time travel from 3 months ago, and all. I mean, you already knew, didn't you? You. Already. Knew.
Greg could play my Squier and it would sound every bit as good as this I bet
As a jazzmaster player for the last 20 years I'm tempted. Must be the tasty headstock.. Lol
I would like to have seen it when it was new judging by the headstock. That thing's(was)beautiful!
Must everything get the relic treatment?
PEACE 💀👽🎸🎶🎵
Brian Olendorf I have mixed feelings with the whole relic thing. I suppose it has its place, but I’d rather a new instrument look that way.
Agreed....it’s lame....it’s like fake news lol

Right on!
Sounds like it needs the truss rod adjusted, fretting out some on the low strings.
At 4:04 isn’t that a song by Quinn Sullivan?
NIce noodling.
This one has such a brash raw 'smashy' attitude to it, I only care for it rolled back on the dials. Perhaps the amp, speaker and/or mic is chuffing it up at around 3k-3.5k; it would sound better balance to me with the bump between 500-1k.
Squauck on the water!
This is a strat.
It was a beaver attacked that guitar.....
Another one of the 10's of thousands of perfectly fine guitars...permanently ruined by relicing. So sad and unnecessary...imho.
Once the relic trend runs its course they’ll get sanded down and finished properly. No worries 😉
Spyder Logan, it’s all about the mojo my friend. If you’ve ever played a guitar with a sanded neck along with all that mojo, you’ll know the difference. In terms of sound, it might be the same. But somehow I tend to always play my best with a reliced guitar. It feels like the guitar has got some history to it, which makes me nourish it in another way. However, I understand that people dislike the like. It’s all personal, but if you give a reliced custom guitar a shot, I promise you’ll feel a difference.
@@jamesrasmussen7036: When is this 'trend' going to end? Relic'd guitars have been around for about twenty five years now and there's no sign of them decreasing in popularity. An end to players liking relic'd guitars would seem to be synonymous with an end to players liking vintage instruments and that will probably never happen.
Monty Cantsin there are vintage guitars that got that way from years of heavy use and there are “relics” that provide the look without the substance. How many vintage guitar collectors are lining up to trade in real 61 strats for relics? Once the bankers and brokers get bored with going through the motions they’ll dump them and the fad will collapse: remember the “chopper craze?” Same story.
@@jamesrasmussen7036: I think you misunderstood my point somewhat. I am not claiming in any way that vintage guitar collectors are queuing up to get rid of their 50s and 60s guitars for a relic'd equivalent (although it should be noted that many touring musicians do use Custom Shop relic'd copies of Strats, Teles and Les Pauls when they don't want to take out a vintage guitar that is too valuable), rather guitar players in general are obsessed with old guitars and hence want to buy something that is as close to those as possible for a much more affordable price. I see no signs of this changing and you've not provided any evidence that it will either.
In a world where all strats were abused..
"Ice Blue Metallic"? More like "Driftwood Blue Remnant". Such a great tone from such a horrifically disfigured instrument. That headstock just shows what could have been... not that I'm opinionated, or nothin'.
