I a/b'ed my two strats today - thought people might like to hear the comparison of the same surf riff:
First riff: Apache bridge, 2003 Mex 60's Classic Strat, alder body, rosewood board
Second Riff: Mother's Milk bridge, 1983 Squier JV 1962 r/i strat, probably basswood body, rosewood board.
Guitarport Fender Twin setting, reverb, 'blue' (i.e. boss) compressor and opto tremolo.
Mixed in Mixcraft
(sorry about the clipping)
