I worked in a music store, We are a Fender Dealer. I dont see whats the excitement about ANOTHER signature Strat, being the vanilla of guitars. Ive played every signature strat there is from Eric Claptons to Eric Johnsons. Besides woods and a few pickup tweeks. You can save your money, get a standard strat, buy some after market pickups from Dimarzio or Seymour Duncan and hot rod it, Just like every other guitar. And it will cost you half the price. Ohhh its made in america. Wood is wood. Anyone who sneezes gets a “signature strat” their boring and nothing special. Hell you could buy a body off warmouth and a neck and build a much better guitar. They can say anything they want about the pickups etc . Your paying for the artists name. Its Just a Strat, a hot rodded strat.WOOO HOO

To b-spot: I’d expect r/s/b lace sensors and a tremolo. Most of his older guitars were like that

Each time I see a signature model I think about the artist as being a technician of some sort. Here’s just the marketing thing, get more people, popularity rules. Whatever.

hmmm, i wonder if it will look exactly like this: http://www.squierguitars.com/products/search.php?partno=0300510506
i figured there would be one when asked about what type guitar he’s been playing he responded “i’m generally playing uh custom built stratocasters”.
it’ll probably be hardtail, dimarzio p’ups, a maple neck and ash body or something dense.
