i haven't used a textured pick in months
I've been using Gibson Standard Heavies for a while now, but recently I dug into my pick tin and grabbed a Fender 351 celluloid Medium and started using that again. I forgot how cool using that pick was.
Some bad news. The Standard had to be returned as the neck did not bow back properly and continued to have some significant fret buzz. That, and the neck just felt thick in the wrong kind of way for my hands. Can't really explain it any better than that.
The used Squier Standard Stratocaster in Metallic Black I ordered arrived today.
Do I like it? I'm not sure just yet, and you'll understand why in a moment.
Being that a Squier Standard Stratocaster will be in my possession soon, I've been doing some research on the guitar. Reading articles, watching YouTube videos and so on.
As you know, I recently acquired a 1971-style Fender Stratocaster waterslide decal, "WITH SYNCHRONIZED TREMOLO" and all.
