So here is the Stratocaster that I traded for:
I was looking for a black Stratocaster since I had a tortoiseshell pickguard with three Dimarzio pickups in it. It has the Blue Velvet neck, FS-1 middle RW/RP, and Heavy Blues 2 in the bridge.
So last night I changed it all out, set up the guitar, and this is what she looks like now.
I was only able to play it through my Rocktron amp out in the garage, instead of one of my higher end amps, but she sounded really good.
I adjustment that I did make was to make sure the tone knob worked with the bridge pickup. They usually don't come wired like that. I was given some of the new D'Addario NY XL strings in a giveaway at Sam Ash. So I put them on this guitar to see how they perform.
So, I look forward to playing out with her when I am feeling better. This guitar seems like she's going to be a lot of fun.
