Doug at Chicago Bar (1997)

Doug playing the Strat soon after he bought it, pre-pickup and pickguard change, and Floyd Rose install.

1997 Fender Stratocaster American Standard (Inca Silver)

I bought this guitar to be my main axe while playing with Funky Bonz. The Bonz tunes called for lots of tonal variety, plus the brightness of a Strat. It was a terrific guitar for the task and is a favorite of mine for jamming now, due to it's versatility.
