    Default Some Strat help

    What's up Fretters!?

    I'm looking at a couple different new production Strats, similarly priced.

    1) Jeff Beck sig model
    2) Hot Rod 62

    I want pickups that sound good with overdrive/distortion...and I need a neck that feels chunkier that the thin modern C Fender, which is much too small for me. And it's gotta stay in tune.

    If you've played either or both...what are the pros & cons as you see them?

    The jb strat is awesome. Never tried the other one you mentioned.

    I've seen the neck described as a "soft C shape"...not like the baseball bats that came on the earliest JB models.
    Did you find the neck to be a little more substantial than Fender's modern C, Robert?
