That’s a fantastic birthday present! Just finished rereading that a couple of days ago, you’re in for a treat.

That’s pretty.

I don't know I you're a Man fan or not, I assume you are. I was lucky to see them a couple of times and the most surreal was to see them headlining at a far from full Royal Albert Hall.
I’m not a massive fan, I have a live DVD of theirs, but I’ve never seen them in the flesh (as a band). I sort of grew up with them around. I learnt A Hard Way To Live for my band as a teenager and Micky Jones played venues local to me at the time (South London). I can’t remember why I bought Deke’s Rhinos, but it’s one of my favourite reads and I recommend it to anyone, not just musicians; he was a very talented writer.

Depends on what you like. The HSS is probably a bit more versatile IMO, as you can achieve a more raunchy tone from the humbucker as opposed to the thinner sounding, bridge single coil on a traditional Strat. However, the in between tone of position 2 (bridge and middle) is compromised.

Inspired by this thread, I have started re-reading Rhinos and it’s still good this time around too.

Most of the books I buy from Amazon are sold as 'second-hand', at a very low price, compared to new. Might be worth watching out for this ^^^^ title (there's none at the moment; I've looked...) to get a Good Read at reasonable cost..? Just a thought...
I believe it’s been out of print for quite a while and the current costs are high because of the scarcity. However, it is available in a Kindle version for £6.

Rhinos,Winos and lunatics.
One of the funniest books I’ve ever read. If you can find a copy at a reasonable price, get it. Same goes for Maybe I Should’ve Stayed In Bed.

There's nothing like a lesson or tip from somebody actually physically there with you.

I can't play the videos, they appear to have no content for me.

These come with 10-46 new. I’d try some D’Addario (always good) 11-49 (EXL115) or Ernie Ball Power Slinkys (11-48) and see how they fare. Jumping a gauge straight to 12s might be too much.

Nice, I love a single pickup guitar and if that’s a P90, all the better. The colour seems to be more of an effort at a Tele like butterscotch blond, rather than TV yellow. Crazy VFM at that price.

Stratocaster bridge recommendations

Be careful going for narrower spacing, as that may compromise the alignment with the bridge pickup. Why are you thinking of swapping out the original one?
