    They seem to pop up on adverts quite a bit. Why not look there.

    I have one and do think it's the bee's knees.
    Is anything in particular you want to know about them?

    The nitro is very easy to scratch, I don't know if it makes any difference to the sound. The pups are great imho with a real stratty sound
    Edit: the nitro on the neck can be a bit sticky when it's new

    You probably know the neck is chunkier than most strats and has a 12 inch radius.
