    the Strat is such an iconic guitar , so beautiful and great sounding , nothing ever needs to change , it can do anything from jazz to funk to disco to punk to metal to classic rock , all in single coil , with that classic tone. Lemmo , you are such a creative and unique guitarist , always a pleasure to just to listen to you play , can't wait for the next episode , always fun and entertaining. Thanks guys.

    I bought a spanking new 74 stratocaster that very year (age 17). I had Gord Miller vintage strip the poly finish - now nitro - similarly the neck cleaned up to a satin finish - much improved feel and appearance - sound little changed. great demo here. I have played disco / Niles riffs in a local band, no better guitar. I recently acquired. 74 telecaster custom, no finer pickup than the wide range.
