Nice review so far man and two very nice guitars. I have considered a US strat in the past myself. Looking forward to more feedback on it.

Awesome review. I played Yngwie strat before and that neck is just not for my hand for some reason. The rest was very good - action, easy bending, nice vibrato etc... I have also tried Ritchie Blackmore strat which also has scaloped fretboard. That guitar felt 100 times better in my hands. I might even get one in the future. And yes, your guitar looks very cool. I hope it works good for you.

Nice review. I really like the sound of this guitar, with the original dimarzios. When I was younger, I was a big fan of Malmsteen, and yes, I wanted his guitar. Just found that the price of that guitar here in Argentina was 3.500 dollars made me think about it and I decided to do a replic with a luthier that I work with here. But it has some changes. I have a floyd, 5 mics instead of 3 and non-scalloped frets. The scalloped frets doesn't fits good in my hand, so I decided to do that.

Nice guitar Gary, congrats, hope it'll serve you well!!
About non parallel strings, I had same "problem" with some of my guitars in the past but never took them to a guitar tech, it was more like a visual error to me and not lack of playability. But it does look weird and not so pleasant, must agree! yeah, it can be either neck placed not 100% straight to body or bridge positioned bit lower on the body. Good thing with Strat is pickguard, you can even more bridge up just a little bit and nothing would be spotted. Take it to a guitar tech if it really bothers you, that shouldn't be major task. Or just enjoy it as it is. -------------------- Youtube

Congrats Gary! That's a very very nice guitar!!
I've got one from 1988, which is his first signature model. But it's quite different compared to this new one. |
