    What strat? There is no better. Who are you?

    thats like asking whats better: a window or curry?

    two totally different things

    better for what?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,848 ✭✭✭✭Doctor J


    If I forgot my tennis racquet, the strat every time. However, if I want to mix some vegetables in a tasty stir fry, it's the Jackson eno question. Short answer, they both rock! :D

    First and foremost which model of each guitar? Personally I'd say the strat, because its more versatile, better looking and has a stronger resale value. For playing metal and the likes, the Dinky is better though - BUT you could always get a HSS strat...

    It depends, they both have their pros & cons.

    Strat all the way.
    My most high end one, is amazing for blues jazz and all the clean and slightly crunchy stuff, then i just stick the pick ups to humbucking mode, and it beats the sh!t out of that jackson for metal.

    But yeah, if i hadnt put in those pick ups, it would only really do for clean and slightly crunchy blues.
    Still think the start is nicer though.
    :rolleyes:

    Yes but a curry is clearly better than a window

    I'm not so sure. What type of curry are you talking about? And a stained glass window can be quite sought after. There not really the same thing though.

    It's like comparing a Fender Strat and a Jackson js20 :pac:

    It doesn't matter which one you eat, you'll end up with the hole ripped out of you! :p:D

    I love Jackson guitars, but the js series are pretty poor. Bad hardware and I don't like the necks on them compared to the rest of the Jackson line. The neck joints are massive too, which really sucks on a superstrat style guitar.

    Part of the problem with your post is that it implies that what a bunch of random guys on a forum think could constitute proof of something in the first place. :pac: Strats have more street cred 'cause Jimmy X used to play one. Tell your friend Eoin said so.

    Curry won't keep the rain out, so I'm going to throw in my vote for Senator Window.

    Windows have a higher resale value though. Put a curry up on adverts and you'll get laughed at. But lots of people will buy a window, once you keep it in good condition.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,117 ✭✭✭Eoin Madsen


    Even a Mexican window would hold its value better than a curry.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,817 ✭✭✭✭Dord


    What about a Mexican curry? :o

    Bad idea. You'll be thankful your bathroom has windows after one of those, hence
    Windows > Curry

    Ahhh you old schoolers with your Windows, why do you Luddites hate the new technology? Curry is the way forward, it's the 21st Century. Leo Fender may have made a Window but he didn't stop there. He progressed, he wanted curry, spicy curry, a madras at least.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,817 ✭✭✭✭Dord


    Or you could have a window splattered with curry! :D

    Cause you can't improve on perfection. Show me a curry than can help me see through walls. Maybe a vindaloo (I saw through time once), but definitely not a mere madras.

    You think technology stopped in 1955? No way, we've moved on, you need to get with the program. What's the point in seeing if you don't have a tasty and nutritious treat? Do you think Jimi Hendrix would still be looking out a window if he could get his taste buds around a modern balti? Curry ftw, no doubt about it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,433 ✭✭✭Quattroste


    Balti Curry. You people are slaves to Brands. Check out the japanese market. They have far better curries at half the price. The spices are better and quality of the meats is just fantastic, not to mention the quality of the chefs. There usually hand made too. Of course they'll never taste like a Balti Curry :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,706 ✭✭✭Voodu Child


    These guys make the best curries in the world. Cheaper than more popular brands too.

    Link :pac:
