Looking for a single 'bucker supertrat?

[gwEm]

lots of superstrat love here these days... must admit some of them look pretty cool!

i like godins, but that one really does look terrible. i mean were they trying to make an ugly guitar?  :?

Here's a question for you superstrat enthusiasts.  Does anyone make a superstrat with a fat, round Gibson-style neck?

All the ones I've tried (not that many, admittedly) have those sort of shallow C or maybe the flatter-backed shallow D shapes, which I don't get on with at all.

schecter maybe? or a washburn x50 pro (no floyd though, and the floyded x40pro has more of a superstrat neck...).

you'd need to look into it, though, that's from memory (and could be wrong, therefore).

I suppose there's always the option of hotrodding a regular Strat.  Which I'd probably prefer, on reflection.

Sounds like a job for Warmoth. You could get a strat neck with their 59 roundback profile.

Yes indeed, or the SRV shape which I quite like the look of.  Expensive, but maybe one day.  It was just a fleeting idea really!  :lol:

I remember when you got your Fernandes, because I had (well, still have, in bits....  :oops: ) a very similar looking Squier.  Nice guitar!  Didn't you almost buy a similar Charvel at one point?

That was also a Fernandes that someone was trying to pass off as a San Dimas Charvel with a fake logo on the headstock. I knocked that one on the head when I noticed the fakery, a short sharp email to the seller was also in order!

The Fernandes isn't bad, I really like the neck and it's loud. You can really feel the body vibrating even though its construction is very environmentally friendly (ie made of more pieces of wood glued together than the average parquet floor) and covered in thick poly. Worth the £120 I paid but not the £600 the auction site seller was after.

The design is rather dull, but the Trans Green colour option is quite appealing.

Wow I usually hate guitars that look like that (especially the colour) but somehow it just works this time. Plus its hardtail which always makes a nice change from the typical floyds etc which I cant stand.. gas :(

Yep.

Looks really bloody nice.
