Just picked up a Breedlove Pursuit Burst from Musicians Friend. It sounds fantastic. It's their Concerto size, and MF had it as their Stupid Deal of the Day, $429.
Anyone use Fender Super Bullet strings on their Strat?
I am a Les Paul guy, and have used D'Addario strings for years. Recently I bought a 2007 Eric Johnson strat, and it was strung with Super Bullets.
It's a keeper, so what should I string it with?
I just had my Fender Roadhouse Strat worked on (maple neck).
This is south metro, Twin Cities MN.
Note: This included fixing the saddles.
I like his work....
Here's 20 or so in the $1500 - $1600 range.
Look for the 50's neck and locking tuners. It is NOT chunky, feels perfect....

So, I've been gassing for a Gretsch for awhile. Last week, I found and purchased a used 2013 Gretsch G6131T-TVP Powerjet Firebird via Guitar Center.
Are there any issues (structural or intonational) that I should look for when deciding to keep it?
Thanks in advance!
I love my 2013 Les Paul Traditional Pro II. I got it used off Reverb, shipped in from Hawaii. With the ability to split the 'buckers into singles, it can do many styles of music. And the on-board boost saves me a pedal. At 10.6 pounds, I use a wide, padded strap.
My chain is in my sig, but the amp goes into a Mesa Cab Clone into the board. It sounds fine. My experience has been a 11 year struggle to be heard in what a friend of mine calls the "church mix" which = keys, drums, and bass.
Been playing electric in our church band for 12 years. We went from:
live amps on stage to
live amps with IEM's into iso cabs backstage to
live amps with IEM's into Mesa Cabclones.
These Cabclones are really great! Zero stage volume.
I had to build/use an iso cab at our church. Here is a <link> to the iso cab build thread I started.
If you have to use an iso cab, use small speakers in a good small cab. Celestion Gold 10's, EVM10, the Fane mentioned above, the Eminence Red Fang, Ramrod or Legend 10, the Weber 10's will all...
