I bought a new Strat from Rondomusic...it was B-Stock because it had a mark in the neck, which you really can't see unless you are looking for it. It's the SX SST LTD2 Natural finish, flame maple neck, ash body (2-piece I think). But because of the little blemish, I got it WITH a case for $120.

I got it yesterday, but didn't unbox it until today, and filmed it so you get to see what I see when I open the case, and I do a little blues thing with a backing track, and fail horribly LOL.

I had GAS, and Rolaids weren't working. :lol: :lol:

As of 4:58 EST it's still processing, but I wanted to get this up before I went to bed.

In Space, no one can hear me sing!

That's the main thing. It's going well! 8)

The youtube was nice, lots of people using that brand.

We can't get a good pickup for that price, and no hard case either. :lol:

Yeah, I don't know how Rondo Music does it.

Congrats! That sure is a nice looking guitar for prices much higher than what you got it for. Way to go! 8)

I'm a sucker for 'natural' finishes (ie woodgrain visible).

Looks awesome!
