I've been thinking about something here
I ordered the Monoprice California classic Fender Stratocaster copy guitars in both black and white
They should arrive TODAY whether I like it or not
The black one was on a July 4th 2014 sale for $69.00



The new locking tuners I tried to install on the Fender Starcaster guitar, 
which resulted in my breaking the headstock of the neck
COST MORE THAN THE BLOODY MONOPRICE GUITAR!!!!



I think it would be wise of me to postpone any more work on the Starcaster
until AFTER I test out the Monoprice California classic guitars



I am still within my 30 days and can still send all the EXPENSIVE guitar upgrading hardware
back to Amazon and get a full refund for the purchase price



Just one of the pickguards with the famous Fat 50s Stratocaster pickups on it
costs more than both Monoprice California Classic guitars put together

(minus shipping)

and I purchased TWO of them. One in black and one in white



The way I feel right now, I don't even want to hear how those Fat 50s pickups sound
Personally, these guitars are only going to be used for honoring Jimi Hendrix



Stratocasters are great guitars, but I like the Les Paul sound much better
Plus I like the feel of the Les Paul much better
Fact of the matter is Fender Stratocaster guitars are simply
not very good for playing jazz

Rock, Country, Blues, R&B, but NOT jazz

I like the Les Paul because it's great for EVERY style of music!



Why spend a lot of money 'hot-rodding' Stratocaster copy guitars
when I don't really like Stratocaster guitars except to look at?



I have no regrets gluing the headstock of the Fender Starcaster
I may decide to put the old tuners back on it and have it as a spare guitar
