I finally decided that I had enough with Marshall didtortions, and hauling a 4x12 is too much for my old aching body. I went out to look for a small clean amp head and a smaller cab thinking I can just hook up a stomp box to it for distortion. Then I saw this Fender Concert Reverb. It was larger and heavier then what I had in my mind. I picked up an MIM Strat leaning right next to it and started playing. It sounded real good! There was also a DRRI standing by its side. I plugged in the DRRI and tried it also. Let me tell you, for those who own a DRRI, sorry folks, the Concert Reverb won the shoot out out right. The 4x10 speakers broke out so nice when they were pushed. It just reminded me of the movie quot;Close Encounter of the Third Kindquot; when the mother ship responded to the keyboardist. The DRRI was the keyboard and the Concert Reverb was the mother ship. It was quot;In your facequot;! There was another guy standing behind me when I tried the amps out. He told he had just ordered an DRRI and he would go back to canael that order and get the Concert Reverb instead. Unfortunately, as I had mentioned, the Concert Reverb is a little too big and heavy for me; but if I couldn't find anything to fit my bill, I'll come back and buy this one.

pickups for alder strat
I have an American series strat, alder body and maple neck/fretboard, with tremolo bridge. I was thinking about installing two humbuckers, a JB in the bridge and a 59 in the neck.

My amp is dead?
I've been playing a Crate GFX-65T for about 4 years now. It's been a good amp - just about all I need. It's all SS - 3 channels - 1 clean and 2 overdrive - with 3 separate FX programs - with an onboard chromatic tuner.
I've been out of country for a couple of weeks - so I haven't played the amp for about a month.

One more beginner question. Why handwound over Duncan?
Hey guys, I went in today to my local Duncan dealer to talk some more about what Duncans would be the best fit for my guitar and possibly make an order. The tech there recommended some handwound Rocket pickups which were slightly more than the Duncans, and basically stated that Duncans are great but handwound pickups are generally better quality than mass produced. I know I posted a couple of days ago and got some outstanding replies, but I just want to make sure the bases are covered before I take the big plunge! Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.

Floyd Scale question
all of the floyd equipped guitars i've seen are 25.5 scale, would there be a problem with intonation making them 24 3/4 or 25 scale ?
