Default NGD: It's twins! New strat with pics...
FedEx just delivered my new Mexican strat (HSS) from ZZSounds. This was a blem model for a GREAT price but I can't find a mark on it. Not sure where the blem comes in. Anyway, this is a match to my Mexican Telecaster. I think they make a cute couple! Been playing the strat tonight and I'm loving the tone. Plus, the neck is an exact match to my tele! Here's a picture. It's not a great pic due to it being from my phone in poor lighting. But, you get the idea...

Nice. Now, are you going to paint the Seagull white?

Haven't you caught on? I bought the two electrics to match the binding on the Seagull!

Congrats! I've got a twin pair of Fenders too - Jaguar and Strat in Lake Placid Blue with mint green pickguards and white pickups. Have you considered red tortoiseshell pickguards? Thise are my favorite on white Fenders.

Cute couple indeed! IT's amazing what they consider to be a blemish sometimes. They can be hard to find and when you find it then it's like Pffft!

I'm a fraternal twin too. Just remember, Mom and Dad love you both the same. (Not true of course.) Now, you just need to put a red wig on the Seagull, to make the family dynamic complete.

That's a great pair of twins! Gotta love those blemish deals that have no tonal impact. You have no idea what the blem is?

Nope. I have been over it from top to bottom and I can't find anything at all.
