Eto, my mij 62ri. basswood body nito, but i like the tone. naka GFS premium texas set.





Basswood pala 'to. All the while akala ko alder.
Anyway.. Kumusta ang tunog? Description please. :lol:

Wow. Lots of info on basswood overnight. Thanks sa replies.
I found a website through Google before.. it had soundclips of a basswood and alder-bodied strat. Great comparison nga eh. (He just transferred the neck between the basswood & alder bodies). I noticed that the basswood body had a warmer tone. The alder body had more 'punch'. I'll try to look up the site later.

Yun nga, hindi garantisadong maganda talaga ang tone ng guitar if it's alder, ash or whatever. The sad thing is, I can't seem to find a basswood or alder-bodied strat dito sa Pinas that I can try out (and fits my price range). Either oorderin pa sa Japan or sa US. :-(
Ang laki pa ng patong ng MIM strats dito. (I'm talking brand new. Hehehe.)

uy sayang naman ito nabenta na! ito yung pinag gayahan ko for my strat project.

Fernandes strats are very resonant. ganda ng pagpili nila ng wood.  Pero may iba din silang wood na ginamit besides basswood diba?
