Hello!
Thomas Blug, a german guitarist was elected as Stratking of Europe.
Most times he plays an old 61 Fender Strat. In the youtube video he describes (with a nice german accent) his concept of using the volume control of his guitar. I like his tone very much. I met him at the Frankfurt Musik Fair and he really is a friendly guy, carrying his 61 strat only in a brown worn out gigbag..
Her you see him live in Rallte / The Netherlands together with Thijs van Leer from the dutch band Focus:
