anyone care to chime in?

I am also looking at the Crawler, which one to fatten a strat (although mine is quite fat) and go from blues to metal?

TY in advance.

I would have suggested an Abraxas but I figured you had ordered the Mule
BLACK HAWKS
IMPULSES
COBRA-T
WAR PIGS
STOCKHOLM
COLD SWEATS
MIRACLE MAN
TRUE GRIT

Agreed, the Abraxas would strike a nice compromise between the Mule and Crawler. Best of both worlds.

sounds lovely in my alder jazzmaster. vintage PAF, with a smidgen more push and Fenderish character
