Hi friendly LPF folk! Wanted to share my latest acquisition here after about 5 months wait but well worth it! Simon Long of SVL guitars made me my dream Strat. It’s his ‘61 Reserve model. I specified hardtail, aged Olympic White and a LARGE neck profile. Its the best Strat I’ve ever played and I’ve owned lots of real vintage Fender Strats (‘56-‘63) over the decades. Tremendous sustain and rich sound, plays like butter with 10s. I’m a happy camper and enthusiastically recommend Simon’s work! Photos follow...best, RAB
