Here is a video of me playing bass on a composition by Dutch drummer and composer Sebastiaan Cornelissen. If you are into this kind of jazz fusiony stuff you should check out his music.

1976 Vintage Fender Stratocaster

You hear some negative comments about 70s strats. It is often said that the 3 bolt neck joint was dodgy and quality control was generally poor. This is an all original 1976 hardtail strat. Contrary to expectations, I cannot fault the build quality. The neck joint is snug and rock solid and the neck as straight as an arrow. The pickups have a bit of beef to them and they have the correct grey bases. In the mid 1970s Fender were transitioning from white to black parts although they had plenty of white parts to use up and you can see all combinations of black and white pickguards, pickups and knobs on contemporary strats. This one has black pickups and pickguard with white knobs.
This guitar has a lovely natural ash finish - most strats of the time had 2 or 3 piece bodies and often the wood was  joined off centre which can look a bit naff on a natural finish. This one has a centre joint and looks great. In fact, it is in stunning condition - it has few small scratches and dings on the body which you can hardly see from a few feet away. The neck is almost completely unmarked although the frets are low for my taste. I imagine they have been stoned a few times. On the plus side the action is very low without any buzz. This guitar is now 36 years old, many would regard it as vintage but looking at it and playing it, its hard to believe it is more than 2 or 3 years old.
I already have a few strats including a 1987 USA standard and 1987 strat plus along with a great G&L legacy and a couple of partsocasters so I may look to sell this one.
