NGD :: Shout out to Sandman !

[MYLILSS]

So today at work I had a FedEx truck drop off an interesting package. Turns out my great friend Sandman on here, decided to make Christmas a little better knowing 2025 has not been my year. I’ve been wanting this for a while since its color is my birthstone and it plays excellent, but he was always on the fence about letting it go. Looks like he decided to let it go, cuz it’s now crossed state lines and in my hands .

My FIRST EVER American Strat !

I just did it as a nod to hendrix since his was reverse slant due to playing a right handed guitar left handed. I didnt notice much difference in sound if any.
