Well, I finaly got a new guitar!  What kind you ask?  Why, a Fender Special Edition Koa Stratocaster of course!  It's a huge upgrade from my old Squier Strat, and it is certinly a huge improvement.  Its body is made of Alder with a Koa wood top (with 2-color sunburst), it has a rosewood fretboard, "Pearl" inlays and pick guard, a two-point floating tremolo, and some Seymour Duncan pickups all around $700!  Quite a steal.  The Unique combination of tone woods (Hawaiian Koa and Rosewood) gives it an incredible sound: It's bluesy and mellow, but also quite twangy and bright at the same time, and it has loads of tone and quite a nice sustain.  On top of all that, it's quite a beautiful guitar, observe:

I am quite happy with my purchase.  It's hanging on a wall mount in my room now.

FANCY

It does look really nice.

One of these days I have to shell out for a better amp and a decent Tele.

jeph:
Seymour Duncans will basically improve any non-vintage guitar where you'd be killing the value by swapping in new pickups, I've found.

I bought a new guitar a few weeks ago!
