I love that neck PU sound! That tape recorder compression is so up-your-face! Makes me think about Hendrix If Six Was Nine (although that was bridge PU, but still the same PU tone compression). Vini Reilly (The Durutti Column) once called the STratocaster "a wonderful machine" or something like that, and that really is what it is. I love those Strat quirks like the sploinky sounds of string tension evening out through the nut score as you play with the whammy bar. I recently recorded this with my strat that I mocked up in -82 by a Schekter body and all other parts form one of those early Japan built Squire strats: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4963264/strat_psalm.mp3 Can't say how much I love that tone, although here it is bridge PU all through. Another classic and great album with the bridge PU strat tone is Hamburger Concerto with ancient dutch group Focus. Jan Akkerman played through rotating speaker Lesley cab's on that album which is another epic strat sound I adore. Greetings from Sweden Per Boysen www.perboysen.com http://www.youtube.com/perboysen
