ok, initial reactions to the jm strat since I haven't found the time for a proper photo shoot...

MISMO mga dudes. I love it to bits. It's definitely worth all the hard work and sacrifices I put in to get it.

I know tone is relative to the player so of course, these are just my own opinions...

The sound's awesome. I have a Fender strat plus 40th anniv release which is one of my babies and the JM strat wins over it big time. The sound is fuller, the tone is thick and warm, and even playing with it unplugged is something else. i definitely can say it's because of the big dipper pups as I've got lace gold's on my other strat. It's really something else. the quack I'm looking for is right on... It's actually the tone I'm after and I'm so blessed to finally be able to own my dream guitar and get the tone I was searching for in it.  If God put a dream in your head, it means you'll get it :-D

Whew... nice one bro... naluha ako sa kwento mo. hehe.

My guitar right now is also a lace sensor gold axe... m quite happy with it, but still looking for that clear yet thick tone that gets quackin' angry when you boost you volume.

Pano yan cy, yung dream guitar ko is what you have right now.. does that mean you'll give it to me someday? hehe. joke.
Thank God for music..

Yeah, he's definitely got a huge advantage there. I think you could practice it away. I have a friend whos like 5'2 and has small hands but plays finger style really good with only his thumb and pointing finger.

kapitan, i think you mean plucking hand... and lovecore meant fretting hand..
either way, fingerstyle and using your thumb to fret the bass strings are great skills to have :-D

i've yet to learn neon. i play sucker once every time i pick up my acoustic...ung "the hurt" mejo mas mahirap than sucker but i'm getting the hang of it...

and eto pa, to guitar players that like to play john mayer songs, alam nyo ba ung technique niya sa heart of life?? hahahaahha i spent about a week learning that song but i got the technique down.

sa heart of life kasi u need to pluck the bass string and first note and flick the second note. lahat halos ng notes with the even numbers ay flicking motion. flicking+slapping...hirap..
