DrNomis_44's Gold Standard STA-1M Build.

[dingobass]

I have no idea as to what any of that stuff is you described but she sounds schweeeeeeet.

[ShazzRandom]

well maybe one of the mid 20 year old actresses from Home and Away can play Shazz !

Home and Away is channel 7 Doc, not that I watch that rubbish, I see adverts now and then

if you get time search youtube for Alf Stewart Doodleburger, select the 13 odd minute complete compilation. Warning, for adults only haha

Sorry Wokka, it's gotta be Orianthi for me! The younger actors on H&A are too tarty these days

[ShazzRandom]

Doc, congrats mate! She sounds a beaut!

[Muzza]

That's one sweet sounding Strat doc. Lots of noice tones.

[DrNomis_44]

Cheers guys, the scratchplate is all wired up Eric Johnson style in that demo.


Those Entwistle ASN57 Noiseless single-coil pickups really suit the guitar, well I think so anyway.

Doc, congrats mate! She sounds a beaut!

Thanks Shazza, I think she sounds really good too, like how a Strat should sound.

[DrNomis_44]

I might do another demo later on, but use an overdrive sound instead of a clean one so you can hear what the Strat sounds like played through an overdriven amp.

demo sounds good Doc, we'll call it the Doc noodling blues haha

nice clean tones, what pickup settings were you using ? sounded more neck/middle at the start and maybe bridge later ?

not far off page 80 mate !

Well done Doc on the build. You know what would be nice would be some chords with you soloing over the top. Again well done,.Great job Doc.

Haha....good one Wokka, Noodling Blues, I like that mate, I was going for a bluesy feel, I actually started off with the neck pickup setting and then went through all the other settings as I recorded myself playing the guitar, it starts off with me doing some soloing, then I play some barre-chords while going through all the pickup settings, then I do some surf-shimmer chords with all the 5 pickup settings, and then I end with some harmonics and trem-use.


I like the clean tones I got out of the guitar and think they sound nice too mate.
