Dan, love the guitar, and REALLY love the tune! Great job!Wow those are some clean vintage strats Mike, I bet you had to hunt for those for a while! I love the color on the '55.
Recently, because of my toying around with Fender Jaguars, I've been getting back into the Fender single coil sound, and the Fender tremolo systems. Right after I put together a cool Jaguar, I just put together a partscaster Strat with the look of your '55 in mind. And it's been really cool recording with those tones. Check this out...
this is what it sounds like...

Thanks Mike. I had a ball recording that song! There's just something about a Strat into a Princeton Reverb for the spankDan, love the guitar, and REALLY love the tune! Great job!
yes,retoric has it that strat pickups got hotter along the way in the early 60;s i have encountered 65 strats with hot pickups so i think some majic happened around 65, theres some really good onesThanks Mike.

Here's another song that recorded with the Strat, this one has one of my favorite solo sounds (like my hero Mark Knopfler). Even though I would typically use vintage Fender amps for Strat tones, I used a Mesa Boogie DC-2 for this one (the clean channel)...
Hey I've read that '65 Strats had some magic hotter pickups, does your '65 seem hotter in output the the '55 or '59? And do you have a favorite of the three? As I said they are some seriously clean examples!!!
