2004 Fender Stratocaster XII, ST-12, CIJ Lake Placid Blue
If memory serves me correctly, Richie Sambora played a 12-string Strat during his run with Bon Jovi. It's a quality guitar for the cheap and sounds all sparkly and jangly and chimey and stuff like that. You can get your "Wanted: Dead or Alive" on all day because of how sweet and easy this guitar plays. This was one of those last-minute deals we did on Sunday afternoon at the recent Orlando guitar show and after this one was bought, it was off to packing up the Elk vans and heading back home.
After cleaning and getting this blue baby strung up, the dark side of me came out, so I ran it through an old TS-9 into a VHT Pitbull just to hear what would happen. Folks, I'm not sure I've ever heard anything so satanic in my life, or as my brother would once describe his first wife, "She's a maniacal freight train of horror that bulldozes all living things in her path." From a creamy chime to the dark tones of the underworld- I'd call that quite a stretch, wouldn't you?
This Strat is super clean and shows virtually zero signs of playwear- it's been oh-so-carefully cared for, no doubt about it. It's been cleaned, restrung with fresh strings and will arrive set- up and ready to go. The guitar originally came in an old gigbag that was as raggedy as my neighbor's French Bulldog, so we housed her in this three-latch Fender USA case. Now that's much better! We love the quality of these early-2000s Japanese Fenders because they're such a super value for the money.
