I got an email from Fender about a Mike Mccready Stratocaster coming 9/12 and to enter for a chance to win one. So I’m guessing this isn’t the Custom Shop one from a few years ago and he’s getting a signature Strat?

Probably a more affordable version of that. Guessing it'll still look beat uo.blueviper wrote:I got an email from Fender about a Mike Mccready Stratocaster coming 9/12 and to enter for a chance to win one.

I'll be curious on the specs. I have a 62 reissue already so I'm curious wha this one will be

It matters to me when knee tunes calls me out for my posts but not when Popeye does.

Shots fired by Jeff? Or does he appreciate Ed’s “Rothing” to the crowd so he doesn’t have to?

Like he’s done to every one of their sneering cynical songs. Their performance of Not For You in Chicago was ridiculous the more I think about it. Some songs need to be permanently retired.tragabigzanda wrote:Sounds pretty great to me.
