It's a Stratocaster.

Derick, I like it, clean and tasteful. I've been "GASsing" for an electric lately, and trying to resist. I sold my first guitar, a twin humbucker Ibanez years ago, and have been all acoustic since. But those Fenders are calling me - been itching for a cheap Squier Tele or some such. Enjoy that new Strat

Very nice Strat Derick. You went all in on the Arctic White. Is this an MIM model?

Derick, good to have both a single coil and double coil guitar in the arsenal. So good choice on trading in for the ES339, and now you have a lot of versatility between that and your white strat. Yes, strats are supremely comfy to play, I would love another one at some point. My first electric guitar was a Cort G series strat, and on a budget it was not a bad guitar.

I am still mulling over the second acoustic, and what to get. It will be a large body, that's for sure.

If I go jumbo, I will go the spruce/maple route. Could look at Eastman if I can find one. I like the idea of the Seagull MJ, but just concerned the neck might be too wide for what I want to do with it.

But not sure if I would pick a jumbo over a dreadnought. The Martin has a more traditional subdued tone, whereas Taylor and Alvarez all hog guitars are very lively, and have a broad tonal range.

The big thing is that I can buy the Martin or the Yamaha from my buddy in South Africa, and I know I would be getting top notch service, setup, and price won't be a rip off etc.

Hey Derick, I have tried Epiphone and Gibson SJ200's. All were duds. But I know the magical ones exist out there, it's just a matter of being in the right place at the right time, for the right price.

If I wanted a maple jumbo, I would look at an Alvarez Artist AJ80. Brilliant guitar! Taylor 618e also nice!
