Mick I think DB isn't a fan of any of the Fenders built in the last 2-3 decades, sure he will confirm that

well... that's in the ball park, have to award a point there haha.
I've got a 2009 USA made strat and its the most beautiful sounding/feeling guitar Ive ever had the pleasure to wrap my hand around. I've played some late 50's/early 60's Fenders as well and they were good but you know, they are a 50 year old guitar so they have their faults. I did play a 68 es335 I was going to buy that was hyped up something fierce and ended up feeling like a fence paling... and sounding like it was full of angry mosquitoes..... each to their own I guess.
Maybe I've got a one in a thousand good one but from that and the others i've played at shops I've gotta sit on the 'positive' side of the fence here.
