Isn't buying one of these akin to the doctor/lawyer who suits up in leather to ride his Harley on the weekends?

Go buy a Squire and get some custom pups from Wolf.
Or get some active pups from EMG.



Re: amps

I have a Line 6 Flextone XL. It is a sim amp, or modeling amp, and has a buttload of simulated outputs built into it. It's fun, but I am also looking for a "deal" on an old "evil twin".
The blooz laywers buy really expensive Closet Classic relics and Rory Gallagher replicas from the Fender Custom Shop for thousands more. The Roadworn MIMs are particularly bad, depending on how the sanding belt action went that day. A shame, because MIM strats are good. Relics suck.

Twins, btw- v.loud.
